By the glass at a food court in Warsaw. Served a tiny bit too warm, ruining somehow the experience. Pomegranate, cherry, a bit of smoke too on the nose. The palate is well made with a good acid backbone, some width, a good grip, some tannins kicking it in the rear and disturbing the mouthfeel a bit. The fruit is somehow a bit discreet but the acid backbone carries the wine through and makes it land on its feet. Ok red from New Zealand.

More full bodied than a usual Pinot. Had with steak and went well. My friend Tom says he gets leather from it. I’d have again. Jakarta

Not bad, but the nose (leather and coke) promises more than palate delivers.

Pale yellow, with aromas and flavours of peach, lemon. Very simple. It's light-bodied and crisp with a refreshingly clean finish.
