The wine is cold stabilised and filtered prior to bottling with the utmost of care.

History

Inoffensive, but dull and lacks structure

3 stars

I really, really wanted to like this, as I would prefer to drink organic wines. However, while not offensive nor unpleasant, there's no structure to the wine and it's too fruity - in that slightly flabby-tasting way - without enough of anything else to balance it. If there was nothing else in the house, I would drink it, but I found myself opening a bottle of something else (it made me crave an earthy Malbec) after one glass - it just wasn't worth using up alcohol units on!!

Finally wine without sulphates! It is dry, nice co

4 stars

Finally wine without sulphates! It is dry, nice colour, the taste isn't for all, but the fact that there is no chemicals makes it very desired.

Lovely wine, without the additives

5 stars

Smooth. Great wine. A pity there's no way of asking for a 'back in stock' request.

Avoid like the plague!

1 stars

This would have had zero stars if I could have selected that. If being organic and having no added sulphur, produces wine like this, give me pesticides and sulphur any time! There is little structure to this red wine and only a hint of the (suggested) ripe red berries on the nose before the shock of a thin, acidic taste with harsh tannins on the palate. There have been few instances of me throwing wine away but, after persevering through two glasses the rest went, where it surely belongs, down the sink. The silver lining - my drains may be a little cleaner!

Don't bother

2 stars

Don't bother. It smells and tastes very cheap and acidic. I have to be careful with wine so I opted for this organic wine with 'no added sulphites' but I reacted like usual with a bright red face and neck and thumping erratic heart beat. This only happens when the wine is no good. (This is after only one glass btw). Don't waste your money.
