Natalie's Score: 93/100

A silky smooth, medium-bodied red from Oliver, British Columbia with aromas of bright red berries and a touch of spice. It’s perfect for savoury summer salads and soft cheeses. The word Vasanti means renewal and growth, which captures the Sidhu family’s story. Their father arrived in Canada in 1980 with just a few dollars in his pocket and built one of the province’s most successful farming operations. Today, his three sons—Davinder, Vik and Gordie–carry on that spirit with top-tier wines like this one. They’re all deeply involved in every aspect of the winery. Davinder, a biochemist and optometrist, has published research on cool-climate viticulture which brings additional depth and precision to the winemaking process.

Gamay Noir food pairings: meaty pasta, grilled pork tenderloin, veal Porterhouse.

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.
