Reviews and Ratings

Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc is loved around the world for its approachable, refreshing, and unmistakable Sauv Blanc characteristics! Kim Crawford's "Illuminate" Sauvignon Blanc offers a similar experience in a work day brunch-friendly style...with nearly 50% less alcohol and only 90 calories per serving, it's light without compromising flavour, making this light and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc a great option to enjoy all summer long and throughout the year. Enjoy with garden salads with tropical fruit, goat cheese, and vinaigrette, spicy Asian cuisine, white cheddar popcorn, goat's cheese pizza with leeks and pancetta, or crispy canapes such as crunchy filo-baked fresh figs stuffed with peppered goat’s cheese. Buy and enjoy! Serve chilled. Tasted June 2022. 90 points. Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca

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.
