Cherry candy. So full, refreshing, and balanced. Very flavorful and lovely juice.

Sergio Licea

Black raspberries, violets, lavender, wet rocks, earth. Beautifully rounded acidity, mineral driven, silky texture with slight CO2 on the forefront, little to no tannin structure, long bramble fruity/slightly smoky finish. Easy drinking yet complex, rivals most Beaujolais Cru.

Marcio Morelli

Produced from 75+ years old gamay vines. Combination of both rich fruit and minerality. Nine-day carbonic maceration followed by fermentation in old vats. But guess what? You get that sense of whole cluster fermentation but not the usual CM fruit profile, which makes me love it even more. Will definitely evolve over time. Simply outstanding.

So much funk and soul!

Tightly-coiled. Was begging for a decant! High-toned bright fruit and wild strawberries with a backbone of pronounced minerality
