Reviews and Ratings

Malcolm Lamont - WSET Adv, CSW rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

I am so thrilled to hear this wine, along with the Westcott Pinot Noir, are offered in boutique wine shops in the U.K., and to see Ontario wines are being credited internationally.
A beautiful Chardonnay, with primary (fruit), secondary (winemaking like oak and malo), and perhaps tertiary (butterscotch) aromas. Drink now, or up to 2023
Jenny Ratcliffe-Wright CWM rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Fantastic to see Niagara chardonnay showing so well. A full flavoured beauty packed with brioche and spice, nutty caramel and baked nectarine. Some savoury herbal notes to add complexity, such as green tea and oregano. A rounded style that leaves you fully satisfied and still wanting more, right after the balanced finish has finally left your lips. Try with chicken stroganoff with Dijon mustard, and exotic mushrooms. @wrightwineblog

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.
