Reviews and Ratings

Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This wine is fast becoming a favourite for under $20. It is so versatile and very food friendly. There is citrus, white and yellow flowers, quince, golden apple, and stone fruit that dance on a beam of acidity. Gorgeous texture. 90 Points.
The Arneis wine grapes for Fontanafredda's Pradalupo Roero 2017 were sourced from the Piedmont region. Wines made from this grape should be enjoyed no longer than two years from the vintage date. "Arneis" translates to "little rascal," a reference to its reputation as a challenging grape to grow. Look for white florals, ripe stone fruit aromas on the nose and ripe peach, pear and spicy flavours on the palate. Chill and pair with seafood dishes. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
