Reviews
Wine Enthusiast – “This brand was an early adopter to the skin-contact trend and remains one of the more serious-minded producers. In this case, a 12-grape blend led by Chenin Blanc produces a slightly copper-hued wine that’s full of tangerine and maraschino cherry on the nose, exuding Old Fashioned cocktail vibes. The palate is all about texture and flavors of orange peel and iron.” (91 Pts)
