Darlene Myers rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

If you scan the internet for reviews on this wine, you are going to find a mixed bag of tricks. Some people love it, some people not so much. I, for one, really liked this wine.
The packaging is very unique, because it comes in a bottle that looks like it's been aged for 100 years. The wine is non-vintaged because it is a blend from different vintages.
When you pour the wine, it's light color in the glass reflects the light. Bring it to your nose, and you will detect flavors of herbs and spices and fruity fruit. It's a medium to light bodied wine that I compare to liquid silk going down. It's smooth but not overly complex.
Wine enthusiast gave this wine a 91. And so did I!

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.
