Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Amazing! Densely concentrated, juicy raspberry, dark chocolate, pomegranate. Dry, balanced, fruit forward with medium plus acidity. Paired well with an aged white cheese with mango chutney. Tasted 2016 vintage in August 2018. 91 points
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A lot going on in this wine! Aromas of raspberry, mocha, dark chocolate, and a hint of a savoury note. Full bodied on the palate with lots of dark, ripe berry and more chocolate on the finish. Enjoy with cured meats and hard cheeses.

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.
