Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Purple bliss. Smooth and supple with plump blackberry and blueberry med-long finish. An accessible Cali Zin with crowd pleasing appeal. Tasted March 2017. 88 points.
Stephen Andrews reviewed this wine as follows:

Tasted April 21st 2017. Colour pink on the rim. Dark red and dense colour to the core. Aromas red and blackberry fruit. Note of licorice. On the palate red fruit black licorice, slight tingle between upper lip and teeth. The finish is short and to the point. An easy drinking sipper. Match with a grilled burger or drink on it's own. If you like this wine you may want to try Luccarelli Primitivo for a comparison. New and old world Zinfandel.

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.
