Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

This is a brilliant pale gold, medium-sweet Argentinian sparking. Fine bubbles are met with ripe peach jelly aromatics and tropical fruit. This is a wine which is not vinified for aficionados of champagne or of traditional method sparklings. This wine offers a taste of bubbles for those who like it sweet. Enjoy now.
Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

Pear and floral notes in the glass, with a stone fruit flavour. A fun fizzy for mixed hors d'oeuvres or to start the evening.
Sean O'Regan - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 84/100 with the following review:

Pale gold, tiny bubbles, slightly herbal, citrus clemantine and ginger nose. Off dry, with repeats from the nose with a somewhat floral/soapy evergreen character. An interesting sparkler at any rate. I'd try this with sushi.
Tasted November 2015
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 84/100 with the following review:

Clean floral, peach, grapefruit and herbaceous notes. Off-fry yet refreshing light odied soarkling wine. The flavours are dominated by a zesty peach note. Drink now, not suitable for aging.

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.
