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

Beautiful! A shining star from the arid desert of Southern Osoyoos BC. This beautiful Bordeaux blend offers complexity, solid structure, layers of densely concentrated flavours and supple textures. Integrated medium plus alcohol. Declared 14.8% ABV. The glass calls for a thick cut, medium-rare AAA rib steak and another glass. With each sip alerting the senses to a tide of aromatics, this is a pleasure to experience. A real gem. Drjnking well now and will be exceptional over 2017-2025. Tasty ripe tannins, ripe blackberry, raspberry, savoury black sage and a Hint of peppercorn. Long finish with persistence of ripe blackberry. This vintage was A pleasure to taste and I look forward to the next vintage. Tasted March 2017. 93 points.

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.
