Craig Haynes rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

This red hails from the vineyards of Domaine L’Arjolle, a wine estate located in Pouzolles, a town in southwest France, inland from the Mediterranean Sea.

This blend of de-alocholized Merlot and Grenache feels lush yet airy, juicy, and refreshing. Meanwhile, the mild mannered stars of the show evoke ripe red cherries and berries and tiny tastes of savoriness.

This is a bottle I would open on one of those steaming hot days when I want an adult appropriate beverage, but the context calls for no alcohol consumption.

Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Rounded, ripe, and juicy, this is an alcohol-free blend of Merlot and Grenache. Aromas of cherry and raspberry, this wine is medium bodied on the palate, with medium acidity. Smooth and plush, with bright berry notes and a touch of an herbal hint. Enjoy with burgers or sausages.

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.
