Reviews and Ratings

Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

The 2016 Cairanne is a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan. It opens with a fairly complex fruity, raspberry nose punctuated with hints of tar and licorice. It is medium to full bodied with mature tannins and a satisfyingly long finish. Pair with tenderloin or mushroom galette. Tasted April 2019. www.thewineloverskitchen.com
Patrick Lesec 2016 is a well-priced medium-plus-bodied Rhône red wine blend of Grenache, Syrah and Old Vine Carignan with dark raspberry, candied cherry and cracked pepper flavours on the palate finishing long with ripe dark berries and cocoa on the palate. Enjoy now and for the next three years. Pair with grilled game sausages. Community Wine Reviews

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.
