500mL bottle, pours a deep dark amber orange with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of tannins, lots of bugs, oak, and red wine grape skins—complex and balanced. Flavour is fairly restrained on the red wine tannins, light oak, and wild yeast. There’s some acidity that’s a bit aggressive, but the tannins and bugs work well. Good stuff.

Pale red, with a slight haze. No head. Fairly effervescent. Has a nice bit of fruit, with some dryness, tannins, and a touch of sweetness towards the finish. Quite nice.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Lightly hazed bright amber reddish-orange with dissipating white head. Tried this directly after Portraits: Malvasia and decisively prefer this. Soft vinous must with mild tannins, semi-dry, nicely balanced.

500mL bottle. Pours murky dully ruddy colour with a white colour. Nice tannic grape character with an earthy, spicy yeast character. Flavour has a great tannic grape character, earthy yeast character. Very nice.
