A perennial favourite, this Cabernet Franc-based rosé offers appealing citrus, plum, and strawberry-rhubarb pie aromas with a backdrop of fresh spring meadow. The palate is fruity and lively, fresh and vibrant, with a surge of refreshing acidity. Source: Vintages Wine Panel, March 2013

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.
