Reviews and Ratings

Carola Price rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Light cherry red. Very bright and clear.
Some cherry and cassis, plum notes with a hint of dark chocolate on the nose.
Medium heavy with alcohol at the forefront. This would benefit a bit of aeration in the glass before digging in. Some chocolate and tobacco leaf with a bit of earthiness. Plums and black cherry with some good tannin.
Excellent for lamb burgers or roasted pork with mustard sauce.
Drink now.
Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

Peppery and cherry aromas on the nose, with a hint of smoke. Smooth, dry medium-bodied wine with tastes of blackberry and black plum. A bit short on the finish but not bad for $13. Would pair perfectly with pork chops and an arugala salad with lemon and blueberries.

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.
