Reviews and Ratings

Brooke rated this wine as 90/100
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

Smooth and sweet on the palate, this is a blend showing ripe and jammy fruit, with medium acidity, and some smoky notes on the palate. Would work well with dishes incorporating Bbq sauce. Definitely a super popular wine with lots of fans.

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.
