9.2

Purchased solely for the label at Cora for €7 and will be back for more. It is a very dark and dry red that is full bodied and smooth. Earthy with hints of currant and chocolate. Possibly one of my favorite reds since moving to Europe a few months ago. — 5 years ago

Picked this up at Cora for about €7. Turned out my dinner guests lived only an hour away from this winery and would always take visitors there. They were pretty excited to see this bottle and turns out it was a great red. Smooth, bold, and fruity. I will buy it again. — 5 years ago

Thin on flavor with no distinguishing notes. I love the flavor of their Pinot Gris but the dryness of this blanc. — 5 years ago

Cherry flavor, smooth, slightly acidic, and easy to drink. Found out our local Turkish market and the owner recommended this one based on my likes. Purchased for €5 and will buy it again on my next trip there. — 5 years ago

8.7

I have been pleasantly surprised to find wines that are typically sweet in America are actually dry here in Europe. Which is more to my liking. This Riesling is half dry, floral, with peach undertones. I spent about €10 on it at a local bazaar. More than I would usually spend but the vendor had me try more wines than I can remember and it was one of two bottles I purchased. — 5 years ago

Very fruity, full bodied, but more sweet than I like. If it had the exact same flavor but dryer, I would purchase it again. — 5 years ago

9.1

I would consider this a semi sparkly dry rosé which is perfect for a warm summer day/evening. Found locally for about €4 and plan on picking up more. So easy to drink. — 5 years ago

8.2

This may be my first French Chardonnay and is definitely different than the usual California ones. Found this one at Cora for about €5. I enjoy a more buttery Chardonnay and this one is more on the tart side. — 5 years ago

My husband really enjoyed this wine and requested it again. It’s thinner than the California reds I’m used to drinking but I did enjoy the leather and cherry flavors. — 5 years ago
