Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Sample tasted as part of Austrian Tasting Ontario - Stay at Home edition 2021. Very pretty and aromatic on the nose, with notes of raspberry and red cherry, black pepper and a hint of anise. Medium bodied and fresh, with vibrant ripe fruit on the palate and some earthy, peppery notes on the finish. Lovely.
Philippe Perreault - Sommelier rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Clear purple color with notes of blackberry, cherry and plum.

This is an elegant wine,it's long on the palate and balanced.

Pair it with leg or shoulder of lamb with honey and thyme.
Serve it at 12-13 degrees.
Enjoyable now.

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.
