L.J. Palmer WSET 3 rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

This is a white Bordeaux blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon; medium lemon in colour, dry, medium plus acidity, and a lovely smooth mouthfeel. The wine has a pronounced aroma of ripe pineapple, passion fruit, with smoky and mineral notes, grass and herbs such as bay leaf. It has a nice tang to it in the mouth. This wine would be perfect with sushi such as scallop, salmon or tuna; it has weight and the bright acidity and citrus notes to complement it.

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.
