Aromas of apple, citrus and mineral, fresh with great purity. Rich flavours of apples, citrus and spice with juicy acidity that balances the residual sweetness. Finishes long, refreshing and minerally. A fantastic value and great match with Asian cuisine, spicy food and schnitzel.
Refined, complex developing dark fruit and fine cinnamon spice on the nose. Surprisingly developed dark fruit with firm but approachable tannins. Youthful acidity apparent but manageable. Well integrated and deftly oaked on the finish.
Concentrated raspberry, cherry, currants and lavish spices on the nose of this very different Spanish red. In the mouth look for full-on red fruit, blueberries, raspberry jam and spices with good tannic grip and length.
Somewhat jammy ripe red berry and spice on the nose, with warm climate fruit and mocha character in the mouth, balanced by appropriate acidity and solid tannic grip.
This is a wine that benefits from time and not over chilling; let this relax and unknit in the glass some before drinking (liberally). The pixelated minerality will spill out of the glass, carried with subtle and alluring reductive notes, pine nuts, lemon thistle, meadow herbs, quince blossom and pear skin. Etna Bianco Superiore can only come from the village of Milo, embracing and facing the sea breezes from 700 m altitude. This is 40-year-old Carricante (with 10% other autochthonous grapes) that is harvested early and spends 10 months in stainless. The finish lingers with seawater freshness and salted citrus. Serious wine; best enjoyed at cellar temperature and with octopus, scallops or white fish now, or better yet, your cellar.
The 2016 version of this natural, skin-fermented Vidal is the best one yet. The nose shows orangy-tangerine and citrus notes, but the true beauty is on the palate, a zesty, tangy citrus bomb with orange peel on a textured frame. The tannins are more evident in this version, providing structure and dimension that all leads to a long, lingering finish. Strange and beautiful.
Very pale. The grassy nose has finesse with notes of ripe green apple and passion fruit. Vivid acidity, intense flavour and a dry finish. Extra refreshing.
