Natalie's Score: 90/100

Love the lime zest and minerality in this lovely Niagara Riesling. Pair it with fresh seafood and peering at your image in a reflecting pool. Riesling is a grape that reflects the terroir and place where it's cultivated, thus the wine's name and mirror image on the label.

Riesling food pairings: roast chicken, spicy pasta dishes, shrimp tempura, grilled salmon.

Remarkable Roast Chicken Wine

Reviews and Ratings

Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Pale straw gold in colour, the nose shows peach, wild flower honey, and a slight petrol note. Tart orchard fruit greets the palate with a laser like streak of acid that makes this wine ideal for enjoying with rich autumn dishes. Butternut squash soup, German sausages or Schnitzel. Tasted July 2016. 88 points. Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca
The Riesling grapes for this Niagara white wine are grown in the winery's Edra's Vineyard. Lovely zesty white pear notes. Match it with seared scallops for extra pleasure and narcissism. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
