Courtney Flood rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Orange blossom, bitters, and honey. Great for cheesecake!
Cherie Cole rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Succulent aromas of dried apricot, wildflower honey, lychee, orange blossom and ripe peaches. The palate is delicate with medium acidity. This would pair well with upside-down peach cake or fruit salad. Tasted April 3, 2016.
Devon rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Dried apricot, pear, orange blossom, hazelnut, candied lemon and ginger. On the palate lovely honey notes appear as well. lovely acid cuts through the sweetness on the finish. Pair with a honey poached pear.
Philippe Perreault rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

Clear gold/gray color.

A nose of orange peel and quince.

On the palate, this wine is lively, balanced and long.

Pair it with foie gras or sorbet.

Serve it at 6-8 degrees.

Can be aged 8-10 years.
Alex & Priya rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Priya: Lots on the go here as Alex would say! Smells like honey and lychee and jasmine flowers. Has a hint of pink to the colour which makes it even prettier. Quite rich and thick, and very sweet. I wouldn't dare pair this with a dessert for fear I'd go into a sugar coma but if it's chilled right, it would be a perfect after dinner drink all by itself. 88pts

Alex: So exotic, like strawberry jam, marmalade and apricot plucked, prepared and placed in a basket of dried rose petals. Not so sweet, just enough to make it a lovely match for a gently flavoured custard and sorbet combination. Or Priya's spiced apple cake. Sensual, affordable and very pretty after-dinner drop. 88pts

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.
