Reviews and Ratings

Rachelle O'Connor rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

On the nose there is a lots of dark fruit, wild mushrooms and wet moss. The flavors are predominantly of cassis drenched cherries and plums. This wine is soft and elegant with well integrated yet notable tannins. Blend from Bordeaux of 63% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Cabernet Franc. It is as though the terroir is in the bottle - really felt like I was at the Chateau with this one - great value too!
Pamela Chiles rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Decent Bordeaux (not a Meritage!) at a good price. Blackcurrant, cherry, nettle and an earthy-savoury element lurking in the background. Supported by fine tannins and a medium finish. Great with fall lamb or beef stew.

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.
