Reviews and Ratings

Tania Thomas - CSW, WSET ADV rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Vinified with the grapes harvested from a couple of century’s old vineyards in the sunny south of Rhône, this intensely purple blend of Granache and Syrah is a real treat. Seductive nose of ripe plums, blackberries and black currants mingles with sweet spice and a touch of tobacco. Soft tannins and great length on the dark chocolate-dusted finish. Drink through 2017. Best served at 16 C.
Get adventurous and pair with rabbit stuffed with tapenade and soft and runny St. Marcellin. Delectable!!

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.
