Julian Park rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The Merlot and Cab Franc blend is juicy, savoury and full-bodied. Aroma of blackberry and raspberry with a hint of vanilla and spice. The flavour is plum, raspberry and blackberry. The smooth tannins and acidity go well with spicy Pizza.

Douglas McMillan rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Blackberry, raspberry, and a touch of blueberry in the aroma, as well as a little vanilla and baking spices. Juicy in the mouth with medium tannins and acidity. The flavour is again raspberry and blackberry. It's just the right juiciness, tannins, and acidity for a nice juicy barbecued burger. We really don't get enough BC wines here in Ontario.
