Domaine de Majas Côtes Catalanes 2015 

Light garnet color. Nose of red berries, earth, there is some funkyness here but it went away with air to let pepper and clove spices show up. On the palate there is so much fruit flavors that the spices notes only comes up on the finish to give some punch to that festive wine. Good acidity level, high quaffability, it’s what natural wine can offer best! Very good (89)

Light ruby-orange color. Nose of spicy red berries, earth and blood orange. Real red berry juice on the palate with black pepper notes, this wine is what we should aim at while drinking this Burgundy range wines; fruit, pinot noir character and drinkability. Don’t let yourself be fooled by this wine simplicity, but enjoy it for what it is which is exactly what I did! Very good (89)
