Wijngoed Fromberg
Our rating: 8/10
A no-nonsense, not too complex wine with a lot of fruitiness. The wine has a fruity palate of cranberries, red cherries, strawberries, roses and violets. Drink it a bit chilled, it will improve the fruitiness of the wine.

Hoeve Nekum
Our rating: 8/10
The wine shows a nice balance between fruit and freshness. It has red fruits, cedarwood and herbaceous scents in the nose. The wine has a nice, broad flavor palate of red fruits and developing aroma characteristics like cedar and animal tones. We taste strawberries, cherries, forest fruit, cedar, liquorice, herbs, and pine. The alcohol can be a bit pronounced in the flavor palate. We recommend to cool the wine a bit upfront, as this will improve the taste.

Domein Holset
Our rating: 8/10
Kleine Prins (Dutch for ‘Little Prince’) is a quite aromatic wine with scents of yellow fruits, vegetables and herbs. We also taste a lot of yellow, ripe fruit in the flavor palate, which is combined with an elegant minerality. The wine is nicely balanced and has a very delicate mousse.

De Linie
Our rating: 7/10
The wine has a bit of a green character. We taste red fruits and herbaceous flavours like liquorice, rosemary and blackcurrant and pronounced smoky flavours of oak. We recommend decanting the wine, this will certainly improve the taste. After being opened for some time, the wine still has green notes of bitterness and green pepper, but the oaky flavours are less pronounced. We suspect that the grapes have been picked too green and have not yet reached full maturity.

Land en Boschzigt
Our rating: 8/10
A beautifully made orange wine. We smell and taste dried yellow fruit, marmalade and a fine, smokey smell and taste of peat-fired whiskey. Nicely to combine with old cheese. This orange wine has been voted the best Orange wine in the Netherlands!
Unfortunately this year is already completely sold out..

Our rating: 8/10
The wine has pleasant aromas and flavours of yellow fruits and flowers. However, we doubt whether this wine can be called an Orange wine, given the very light color and scent and taste palate of yellow fruit and flowers. We would rather call it a nice white wine. To conclude, this is a good and well-made wine with a lot of fruit and nice acidity.
