Reviews and Ratings

Kevin rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

A fresh zingy Riesling with the perfect level of sweetness as a summer tipple that's a little different [and perhaps more interesting] than your traditional pinot Grigio. Medium body with quite low alcohol with gorgeous peach and mineral notes.
Sprightly, racy and nervy on the nose and then quite sweet (40g/L RS) on the palate. Getting drier every year. May end up about 30. Very fresh even if not very deep and dense. Drink: 2010-2013. Score: 16 (out of 20) Source: Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar

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.
