Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Robust dry red blend of Portugal's Alfocheiro, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Nacional. Aromatic with ripe blackberry, blueberry and Damson plums, slight herbs, vanilla and floral notes that blossom into a full-bodied palate. This is a great apres-ski or skating wine to enjoy with hearty winter fare.
Craig Kuziemsky rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Offers aromas of black fruit and a touch of smoke with blackberry, plum, cherry and vanilla flavors. The flavor was a bit light and not as expressive as I was expecting.

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.
