Reviews and Ratings

Van McGowan rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

This wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Grown primarily in the "Old Main" vineyard with Petit Verdot and Malbec grown in the "King Drive" vineyard.
Aged in French oak for 22 months prior to bottling. This is the wineries take on a Bordeaux-style blend.
At the 2013 35th Annual International Wine Festival this was one of the Wine Picks.
Rich juicy blackberry, plum and cassis followed by vanilla. This wine finishes with a good grip of tannin.
This wine will age well. Enjoy!

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.
