THE WINES
Following, are the brand’s three wines and a brief description by the judges:
EL Cuvee Xeme Anniversaire (93 pt.)

EL Red 2014 (92 pt.)
“… very refined and sophisticated. Elegant and showing gorgeous mid-palate finesse, it lingers beautifully on the finish and demonstrates complexity too…”
EL White 2017 (91 pt.)
“… a fresh and elegant white that has a trace of delicacy while remaining persistent and crisp…”
