Darlene Myers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

I had to give this wine a 90 rating for two reasons. The great value and the really good wine. A splendid price, this blend of Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Mourvedre is complex and full of flavorful dynamics. Lots of big bold cherry fruits, chocolate and vanilla toasted oak. It's a beautiful wine at a beautiful price.

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.
