Reviews and Ratings

Trevor Sabourin - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

This is an excellent value white that is crisp, light, and refreshing. The nose is delicate, and offers Granny Smith apple, lemon zest, yellow plum, pineapple, wildflower honey (especially as it gets some air), and almond. On the medium-light palate the fruit is crisp, but less tart, with the sour apple becoming soft green pear, with hints of ripe lemon/lime, almond, and wet stone. Very soft in the mouth. Medium length finish of pear, lemon, and almond. A nice alternative to pinot grigio for use as a summer sipper or for pairing with light seafoods or chicken dishes.
Smooth with clear hints of melon, pear and ripe apple; a long and lingering finish leaves the mouth perfectly clean with a pleasant residual aroma.

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.
