Lightly colored. Nose of apricot, lemon, white peach, sea breeze all in a rich yet really fresh way. Same profile on the palate, the richness and mouthfeel paired with the acidity and salty notes are really satisfying. This is quite a good QPR too. Good+ (88)

Light ruby color. Nose and palate of berries, earth with some herbacious and green notes, but the fruit lift it up and the sweet spices pairs well with it. Fresh and juicy, this feel to me like a Greek Beaujolais could be even if it doesn’t have the same flavor profile, but the spirit is there. This is highly enjoyable and this wine is made to drink it and quench your thirst! Will have to drink more of thisVery good (89)
