Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Enjoyed on #nationalroseday! Aromas of ripe strawberry and cherry, with a hint of melon and a hint of white grapefruit. Light bodied, and refreshing, perfect for patio weather! Enjoy with a spinach and strawberry salad.
Lori Kilmartin WSET3 - WSET3 Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

This is a fruit bowl on both the aromas and the palate! Primarily Gamay grapes. Fresh strawberries, cherries and raspberries with a bit of pepper from the touch of Syrah added.Some floral and herbal notes underlying. Plenty of fresh acidity to keep it in balance. Would be a fabulous match with a fresh strawberry and goat cheese salad this spring/summer. #tasteontario Tasted March 27/18
