Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Sample tasted as part of a California wine month seminar “California – Then and Now”. This Albarino from Lodi benefits from maritime influence and maintains lovely acidity and brightness. Aromas of ripe pineapple and white florals on the nose. Light bodied, refreshing and mouthwatering on the palate, with vibrant tropical fruit and a hint of saline and minerality. Enjoy with light seafood dishes.
Alana L rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Fresh, crisp and lively with apple, salt and wet stones on the nose and palate. Elegant, fruity, and well balanced with a medium body, its fermented in stainless steel to preserve a maximum of fruit and aged on light lees that add mouthfeel and texture. With wonderful bright acidity it would pair beautifully with oysters, fresh seafood platters and shellfish.

Tasted as part of the "California Wine Month Master Class: California Then and Now", a master class showcasing classic California wines, regions and range of styles and beautifully hosted by writer and speaker, Elaine Chukan Brown and California Wines.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
