Reviews and Ratings

Deborah Podurgiel - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

Just Wow! This is a beautiful, dry and juicy James Bond-style Bacchus. Beautifully contemplative and crafted. Easy to enjoy with flavours that meld with a silky flow over the mid-palate, but equally well-defined if you want to discover it layer by layer. Barely medium-bodied, fresh and floral with flavours of fresh pear, citrus zest, guava, pineapple, dried fine herbs, thyme and flinty, mineral notes that linger on and on with refreshing food-friendly acidity. Powerful, complex and so easy to love. Take your time to enjoy it well. Tasted June 2023.

The Bacchus grape has noble heritage. A Vitis Vinifera cross between Riesling, Sylvaner and Muller-Thurgau, it produces intensely aromatic and powerful wines. This example is superb chilled on its own and the winery suggests a pairing of “coconut poached halibut with lime cilantro gremolata.”

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.
