Gosh, this producer sure knows how to pull on my heartstrings. The palate was very light, watery thin even, but the perfume it exuded was just incredible. Fresh roses, violets, cherries, orange zest, smoky incense, and some herbs. Boah, I could just keep swirling and smelling this wine. — 8 months ago

Talk about classy (or classic) Chardonnay, don’t matter really, this is both! This is in its own league when it comes to Chard. It’s crisp yet round, bright yet balanced, and acidic yet unctuous. Not old world but not typical Cali Chard. Must try this ABC. Cheers. — 8 months ago
Fruit forward aromas of blackberry and black plum with undertones of baking spices. Round and rich on the palate with good acidity, tart blackberries and spicy tannins. — 3 months ago
First time trying this type of varietal. Savory fleshy bouquet. Mushroom , forest floor, earthy loam, prune and raisin. Great backbone of acid, cherry and more prune on the palate. Lots of structure to keep aging. Very unique wine. 13% — 4 months ago

100% Arinto grapes. Straw golden color with an interesting green hue. Grapes are grown in literal cracks in the volcanic soil. Intense mineral aromas along with hints of grapefruit. The palate is full of minerals and grapefruit as well along with an infusion of lemon. Nice note of salinity on the long and lingering finish. Beautiful freshness and acidity. Fresh and persistent. Outstanding and unique! — 2 months ago
