Reviews and Ratings

Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Crafted with summer and BBQ season in mind, 13th Street's winemaker, JP Colas, brought together two very popular aromatic grapes (78% Riesling, 22% Pinot Grigio) that are packed full of sweet tree fruit (pear, apple), honeysuckle, and sweet spice. The creamy-smooth mouthfeel is backed with refreshing crisp pear and spice on the long finish. Fantastic with seared tuna or salmon burgers, or go all out with a stacked Aussie burger with the lot (i.e. big, bold and delicious stacked burger topped with beets, pineapple, fried egg, and smothered in a creamy sauce). Look for it in LCBO all summer long or get some shipped to your door winery direct. Terrific wine for the price and perfect to enjoy this summer! Tasted June 2017. 89+ points.

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This is a wonderful zesty, fruit and floral aromatic white blend of Riesling and Pinot Grigio. Accessible and crowd pleasing. Stone fruit juiciness with a pleasant mouthwatering acidity. Medium bodied, well balanced and integrated. Pairs very well with Asian cuisine, and is easily enjoyable on it's own. Great value! 89 points.
