Stephen Andrews reviewed this wine as follows:

Tasted May 9th, 2018. Colour bright purple. Legs thick. Aromas and flavours of dark fruit on vanilla wood, spicy, cherry. Taste, dry, medium plus mouthfeel, some mouthwatering, balance fruit and tannin. Finish short leaves some tea tannin in the mouth. Easy drinking good value table wine. Pair with hamburger. I had it with dark chicken spaghetti was ok but not wow. I would recommend this wine as a try.

Lise Charest Gagne rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

A fruity young pleasant wine!
Great for a warm patio sipping sessions. Juicy light red fruit aroma. More red berries on the palate with low tannins. Pair with sun and friends! Would be nice for a new red wine drinker.
