Reviews and Ratings

David Skinner rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

Deep ruby and a tight purple rim. Aromas of black raspberry, dark cherry, and currants accented by floral notes. Bold and full bodied with eager tannins and ample acidity in harmony. On the palate there are layers of currant, cassis and blackberry. The finish is persistent and the subtle oak accents of cedar juxtaposed against the velvety tannins. Give this one some bottle aging and it will reward you with deper complexity and enjoyment.

Serve this with an Asian-style short rib dish and cauliflower mash.

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.
