Reviews and Ratings

Paula Bernardino rated this wine as 83/100 with the following review:

I discovered this winery at the Taste Ontario event in Ottawa April 3, 2019. I really enjoyed their rosé, a nice 100% Cabernet Franc. I would pair it with an entree of grilled scallops and/or shrimps.
Pondview 2017 is a well-priced rosé produced from Cabernet Franc red wine grapes from the Niagara Peninsula wine region. Look for vibrant red cherry, rhubarb and strawberry flavours on the palate on this zesty wine made for barbecue fare. Pondview Estate Winery has three generations of winemaking experience which started in Sicily, Italy. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
