pleasant wine

Eszencia

- texture like in honey, extremely sweet,

nature's antibiotic

.

Had an interesting tour in the winery
. and in the cellar
. The cellar was nicely lighten

with white light,

so could see the colour of the wines
.

Bottles waiting for to be labeled
.
The bottles are not just for decoration,

but as the winery's pretty small

every corner is well-used,

here for storaging
.

Extremely professional and pleasant tour & tasting

- could feel that even an individual client is important and looked after

- absolutely the best wines & tour of these 3 cellars
