Reviews and Ratings

Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Cool climate California Chardonnay with creamy buttery richness. Deep lemon colour with thick legs on the glass. Tropical fruit, citrus, coconut cream, honeysuckle, honey and smoke aromas and flavours. Refreshing acidity with a long smooth citrus finish. Delicious!
Christmas dinner wine.
Tasted: December 2014

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.
