Matt Steeves rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

13th Street Winery's Premier Cuvée 2014 is a beautiful expression of the fine sparkling wines their talented winemaker produces each and every year. Produced in a zero dosage style, making it extra crisp and refreshing - and what most come to love and expect with any premium sparking wine. The 2014 vintage is a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, which benefitted from 48+ months lees aging, with no oak influence, thereby preserving the natural fruit characteristics, with the added complexity those four years of aging on the lees adds in the bottle. Crisp golden apple, biscuit, nutty notes, and a hint of honey on the nose and palate. Great structure with mouthwatering freshness making it a terrific choice to enjoy for any celebration and with a wide range of dishes, and a great candidate for medium term cellaring. Drink 2020-2030. Tasted September 2020. 92+ points. Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca

Natalie's Review

13th Street Premier Cuvée Sparkling 2014, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: A traditional method sparkler produced from equal amounts of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, dry, rich and creamy with lemon curd, briny mineral and toasty flavours on a lively, persistent mousse. Chill and enjoy on its own or pour with a smoked, baked maple ham. Drink: 2020-2024. 142679 12.50% XD 750 mL $39.95 Score: 92/100. November 14, 2020 Top Rated Sparkling Wine.

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.
