Reviews and Ratings

Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

while you're hit with an initial Lychee fruit sweetness this wine finishes with a lovely crispness. We actually tried it with lemon squares and it was a perfect match! Could be served as a dessert wine, with more simpler desserts and to cleanse the palet after a heavier meal... but I still think this is another one that would be great for enjoying on the back deck, paired with some goat cheese and crackers, and good friends, of course!
Corinna Horton rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

A bright, sweet opener. Fruity enough to cleanse the pallet and ready it for bigger, bolder tastes. Balanced beautifully against the duck confit, smoked gouda grilled cheese we opened with this weekend.

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.
