Reviews and Ratings

Harvested in October, this wine is a classic Marechal Foch made from 28 year old vines grown at our Southern estate vineyard in Osoyoos. This site provides maximum heat during the growing season and
produces a very ripe concentrated fruit. Fermented to near dryness and aged for 18 months in American oak barrels, this wine will improve for up to 5 years.

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.
