Greg Hughes rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This wine has tremendous value behind it. It's extremely well made. Really nice and balanced.
Fresh raspberry, orange rind, cocoa dust, and rosehip on the aromatics.
Some nice plum, cherry, and raspberry. It is a medium bodied wine with a fine acidity to keep it fresh. Some savoury spices on the finish pull it together. Let it breathe 20 minutes, before you tuck in to it.
Roasted pumpkin seeds on top of broccoli soup went very well with this wine. It would also pair well with genoa sausage or tenderloin.
Featherstone have a really charming veranda and restaurant at their winery, in Beamsville. It's family run, peaceful, and are a great representation of Niagara style.

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.
