Rachel rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

This was my first try and what a good choice! We made dinner for company that consisted of filet mignon and homemade mashed potatos. This hearty delicious meal paired with Epica wine was PERFECT! We enjoyed it very much. It was every bit of rich and savory and such a great find/buy!
Community Reviewer reviewed this wine as follows:

A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Carmenere, and 5% Syrah. On the palate, Epica is filled with summer red fruits and a touch of sweetness. Ample flavors of savory cherry and dark cocoa with a long smooth finish. Pair with red meats, small plates with cheese, meat and nuts and for an extra special treat pair it with some dark chocolate.

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.

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.
