Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Beautiful! Aromas of dark cherry, tobacco, cedar and a bit of black pepper. Full bodied, with bright acidity, and some medium tannins. Flavours on the palate include ripe cherry, mocha and tobacco with a hint of smoke and spice on the finish. Enjoy with hearty braised meat dishes.

Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Made from 100% Tempranillo, the Pago Del Cielo, Celeste Crianza 2017, from the Torres Familia, shows aromas of sour cherry, dried blueberry, mustard seed, black pepper, parmesan cheese, tobacco and cedar. Harvested in Ribera del Duero in Spain, the grapes were picked at close to 900 meters of altitude; hence the name Celeste. Round, with a warm finish, this full-bodied wine exposes suave tannins and flavors of sour cherry, blackberry, dried roses, pastrami, cocoa and cedar. Enjoy!

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.
