“The Touraine is exceptional; a round, full bodied, crisp wine with modest richness, excellent flavor (pear, apple, lemon grass, guava, white peach), and a long, vibrant finish. 12 hours of skin contact. Aged 6 months in stainless steel. 13% [2022-2023]”

“I love this flavor. Melons, sage, and very white peppery. Super thirst quenching and fresh. Dramatic guava notes.”

“Pretty nose of white grapefruit, lemon, white pear, fennel, and flint. It’s medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and a fresh, zesty palate. Drink now.”

“Gooseberries, lime zest, green apples, nettles, and oyster shells on the nose. Medium-bodied with tangy acidity and a pithy, zesty palate. Drink now.”
