Reviews and Ratings

Sona Shea rated this wine as 71/100 with the following review:

My week was crazy. All I wanted to do is go home and relax with a glass of Irony and watch a Rom Com I've seen a dozen times.
Instead a few friends popped in unexpectedly. We shared the Irony Small Lot Reserve Merlot and the hummus I had planned to indulge in, and laughed all night.
It was a great night. The Irony blended in nicely with the atmosphere but it didn't stand out, which is OK. It's not always necessary to be a star. Although, for the price I expected a little more. I'm going to say I liked it, but in lower case.

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.
