Reviews and Ratings

Deborah Podurgiel WSET IV Candidate - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 94/100 with the following review:

Enjoy this bubble beauty now and often! Lunessence Sparkling ESV Brut Riesling 2025 is produced from 100% Riesling in the Charmat method, whole-cluster pressed and aged on its lees. Zesty and so refreshing, this is a serious sparkler with ripe green apple and orange blossom aromas and flavours with citrus and nutty notes. Beautifully balanced with racy acidity delivered on a persistent mousse, it finishes long on a leesy note. Chill it up and enjoy it now through 2029 with just about any dish, but it's a master at brunch. Tasted June 2026.

Produced from organically farmed Riesling grapes sourced from Summerland Bench Estate Vineyards, British Columbia.

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.
