Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

The collaboration between Chinese producer Changyu and Lenz Moser of Austrian fame, in Ningxia, widely recognized as China's best wine growing region, has resulted in a most interesting complex wine. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon it is medium bodied and silky in the mouth. What makes is so captivating is -it changed from minute to minute in the glass. It started with minty notes and then opened to more herbal tones. Restrained dark fruit came next and ultimately it took on a rich chocolate-y profile. Nicely balanced and very approachable this was a delight from start through the long finish. Pairing suggestions include steak and chocolate tart.. and I can see why! Tasted August 2020. www.thewineloverskitchen.com

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.
