Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Pale ruby with a garnet hue with aromas of backberry, strawberry, ripe raspberry, earth, wet leafy forest floor, leather and minerals. Also some hints of smoke and gaminess.
Flavours brighten up into the palate with raspberry, tart bing cherry, tobacco leaves and cigar box with loads of minerals and cedar sprigs with some fresh and fruity notes. Medium acidity, medium body light finish. Pretty nice Pinot from niagara. Fresh and fruity with a pleasant mineral finish. Pair with duck breaks, pork tenderloin or grilled rainbow trout. 88 points, November 2017

Rachelle O'Connor rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Medium bodied and fruit forward with lots of tart cherry and candied cranberry and that signature earthiness typical of the varietal. Lots of intensity on the palate with a refined elegance and overall polished presentation. Well done.
