Natalie's Score: 89/100

An exuberant, zesty wine that wakes up the tastebuds then tickles them with lovely lush pineapple, lychee and white peach notes. Light-bodied but not wimpy: packed with expressive tropical and citrus fruit. Perfect as an aperitif or the glass of wine at 5 p.m. that I call "Mommy's little helper."

Riesling Gewürztraminer food pairings: salads, seafood, mild and medium curries, sweet and sour dishes, glazed ham, fruit chutney.

Reviews and Ratings

Michelle Gibbon rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This wine was really crisp and refreshing. It had hints of kiwi and peach for me, and the citrus was very apparent on the nose. It was light-bodied with a short finish, so it was great as an aperitif. It also paired very well with turkey. It was very balanced, and not too sweet or acidic.
Mark rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

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.
