Reviews and Ratings

In their 2013 edition, Guide Hachette gave this wine a rating of 2 (out of 3). A very fine, cellar-worthy yet approachable Cru Beaujolais. Handsome purple colour in the glass, with aromas of cherry pie, strawberry and woodsmoke. Dry, fruity with velvety tannins and mouth-wateringly bright acidity. Impressive now, it will evolve well for 3-5 years. Source: Vintages Wine Catalogue

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.

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.
