Reviews and Ratings

Melanie Lloyd - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Aromas of ripe strawberries along with dark berries, cedar, beetroot, and hints of baking spices and cocoa. On the palate, it is full-bodied with smooth tannins and dark berry flavours followed by bell pepper as well as cinnamon and cocoa undertones. Lovely wine at a great price point. Pair with a barbecued steak.

Tasted at the Argentine Special Tasting Evening in Ottawa June 2019.
Craig Haynes - WSET3 FWS SWS IWS rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This cabernet sauvignon from Argentina delivers tonnes of red and black fruit along side notes of cedar and graphite. Look for stunning purple hues in this full bodied ruby red. Showing subtle tannins and a long finish, this wine is an exceptional value.

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.
