Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Subtle red cherry, raspberry, strawberry, and watermelon aromas over underlying minerality on the entrancing nose. Dry and fruity, zesty and crisp, with pleasant red fruit with increasing potent wet stone on the palate. Cherry blossom and floral notes join the fruit and mineral through the finish. Another winner from the Malivoire Wine Company. Perfect pairing for chicken, stuffed turkey breast, and grilled pork chops.
Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This 100% Pinot Noir Rosé has a slightly floral nose with fruity dried strawberries. Tart strawberries on the palate and dry. Medium plus finish. This rose is robust enough to stand up to a meal of BBQ chicken or pork tenderloin. Tasted July 2019. www.thewineloverskitchen.com
Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Lovely and consistently good year after year. Aromas of field strawberry, lime zest and orange peel. Nice vibrant acidity and light, but flavourful berry notes on the finish. Enjoy with fresh summer salads or grilled salmon.




Natalie's Review

Malivoire Vivant Rosé 2018, Beamsville Bench, Niagara Escarpment, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: Aptly named "Vivant" because this medium-bodied Pinot Noir Niagara rosé is vibrant and zesty on the palate. Lots for fresh strawberries, red berries, soft orange, honey and pink florals on the palate. Great length on this fresh PN. Pair with a beet and goat cheese salad.

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.
