Reviews and Ratings

In the 2013 version of Alanera, the winemaker has again used the Amarone method of partially drying grapes before fermentation to concentrate the juice from 55% Corvina, 25% Rondinella, 10% Corvinone, 5% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. This makes for a very juicy, concentrated wine with dark cherries, blackberry, savoury spice and vanilla flavours. There is some oak ageing on this wine, but more for gathering and marrying all of these flavours and mellowing the wine. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
