Pure orange clementine delivered dry and mouth-watering. Lovely! Sun-dappled citrus orchard. Walk through your senses. Some orange blossom on the finish. Lovely for Asian or any flavourful dish and seafood.

Reviews and Ratings

Adam Bower rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Slightly pink in color, nice intensity on the nose of tropical fruit, grapefruit, passion fruit, a hint of lime zest,and the intensity follows through on the palate. You expect a sweeter wine, and are surprised with a long dry finish.
Very crisp, vibrant and refreshing.

A perfect wine with some thai food that carries some heat and you can't go wrong with steamed mussels or scallops!
Picking up some cheese? A match is made with some local Fox Hill Jalapeno Gouda straight from the farmers market!

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.

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.
