Reviews and Ratings

Anthony Hillman - WSET ADV rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

A great value food-friendly versatile medium bodied red. Ruby colour with purple tints. Youthful aromas of dried plum, blackberry, and tea. Chalky moderate tannins with dried fruit character of cranberry, plum, and raisin carried through on the palate. Think Port fruit flavours (without the fortification, sweetness and longer-term aging effects)!

Pair with friends and parties.

Notes from the Wine Box:
Wine produced with Castelao (35%), Tinta Roriz (25%), Syrah (25%), and Touriga Nacional (15%). Aged in Portuguese new oak barrels for 4 months.

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.
