Reviews and Ratings

Montes Alpha 2021 Chardonnay is plushy, creamy and as rich on the palate as it is on the nose with fresh aromas of apple dumpling, lemon pudding, vanilla and briny mineral flavours with a creamy, long finish. Chill and enjoy it with roast chicken dishes. - Community Wine Reviews

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.

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.
