Betuws Wijndomein
Our rating: 8/10
The Cuvee Signature has well integrated aromas and a very broad aroma palate. We smell forest fruits and characteristics of spices and herbs. The wine has a rich flavour palate of forest fruits, herbaceous and oak characteristics. The finish is somewhat dominated by the taste of cedarwood, due to a 12 months aging on (partially) new barriques. This indicates that the wine is still young and will improve with further ageing. We expect that more tertiary aromas will develop then. We recommend to decant the wine before drinking or open it a few hours before drinking. Or to store it a for another year of course.

De Kleine Schorre
Our rating: 8/10
The bouquet of the wine is beautiful and full of tropical fruit with a pinch of ginger. Melon, pineapple, mango, passionfruit, dried apricots: it is all there. The wine has a nice and soft mouth feeling and is very well balanced.

Wijngoed Havelte
Our rating: 7/10
The wine has an extensive aroma palate with scents of blackberry, prunes, rosemary, pepper, eucalyptus and bay leaves. The bouquet of the wine however promises more, and is more comprehensive, than the taste delivers. The wine is not very complex in its taste and the finish is rather short. Nevertheless, this is a nice and well-balanced glass of red wine.

Domaine De Brabantse Wal
Our rating: 8.5/10
A remarkably good and fine wine. Very well balanced, full of aromas and good in acidity with a pleasant ending. The wine has a very attractive bouquet of primary, secondary and tertiary aromas of apricot, honey, dried apricots and figs, cedar, vanilla, butter, brioche and some herbs. We taste nectarine, apricot, yellow tropical fruits combined with butterscotch, vanilla, cedar and a small almond bitter in the finish; typical flavours of 6 months ripening on oak. As the name indicates: It is made with love!

Our rating: 7.5/10
After a more subtle and modest nose, an overwhelming taste comes over you and you will taste intense tropical fruit, ripe yellow fruit, stone fruit and floral flavors. The wine has a fine and smooth mouth feel.

Domaine De Brabantse Wal
Our rating: 7.5/10
A wine with a fruity and mineral character. In the nose we smell yellow fruit, stone fruit and scents of green asparagus. In the mouth we taste apricots, ripened apples and gooseberries and pear. Besides its fruity character, the wine has a distinct mix of stoney and slightly bitter flavors (almonds). It is a full, round wine. A good wine in quality, it could have been slightly higher in acidity.
