Reviews and Ratings

Linda Mertes WSET 2 rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

An eye-catching label that may start the conversation, this medium-bodied white wine is a blend of the aromatic grapes Muscat and Gewurztraminer, with the Swiss grape Muller Thurgau. From the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, the aromas are subdued somewhat and then the floral appears on the palate with a dry, citrus finish. Serve with appetizers, fish and poultry.
Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

A curious, interesting, and aromatic blend of Muscat, Muller-Thurgau, and just a little Gewurztraminer. It is slightly reminiscent of the Tidal Bay blends of Nova Scotia, but this comes from the other side of the country. Wildly aromatic and fruity with generous portions of melon, lychee, lemon, and peach. While the Gewurz is only a small portion of the blend, it influences the texture pleasantly and adds some substance to the palate. The winemaker recommends to enjoy with a hot dog on the beach. I agree.
Produced by The Hatch Winery, Jason Parkes`` Gobsmacked, Cyclops Love (JPC) 2017 is a zesty and food-friendly Muscat, Muller Thurgau and Gewurztraminer white wine blend from the Okanagan Valley wine region, British Columbia. Aromatic with lime zest, ripe apple, lychee and spicy flavours on the palate. Off-dry and zesty to take on spicy Korean ribs and pad Thai. - 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.
