Natalie's Score: 87/100

Love the dark chocolate and blackberry compote nose on this lush and juicy Cabernet Sauvignon. Full-bodied and easy to love with ripe blackberry, cassis, earthy herbs and cedar spice (from oak aging) flavours on the palate. The wine's label is named in honour of explorers Lewis and Clark who mapped the Columbia Ridge in 1805.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: grilled New York strip loin, hard cheese, braised pork shanks, veal chops.

From Horse Heaven Hills, Columbia Valley, Washington, Canoe Ridge, The Expedition 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is so chocolatey on the nose and palate, a harmony of blackberry jam, blueberry, earthy florals, savoury herb and cedar spice flavours with fresh acidity to accompany it. Enjoy now with a well-marbled, grilled skirt steak. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
