Reviews and Ratings

Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A classic from Leaning Post Wines, the Fifty has been a perennial favourite and top value premium wine since its inception. Fermented in oak but aged in stainless steel for nine months on lees. Plenty of fresh citrus aromas followed up by apple and toasty lees. Pleasant texture, slightly creamy with zippy acidity and a medium body. Palate reinforces the citrus nose and lees aging, enhanced by little tropical hints and underlying minerality. Very Chablis in style, a great match for Brie and shellfish.

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.
