Simply one of the best expansion pack ever.

CD Projekt Red has raised the bar on what it takes to make a high quality story driven RPG. They did not fail to deliver on Geralt’s final tale either. If this is our last hurrah with the White Wolf it was time well spent.
If this turns out to be Geralt’s last adventure, it’s a worthy end
The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine concludes Geralt’s latest saga with memorable quests, fearsome battles, and surprising wit.
A triumphant return to the world of the Witcher and the most fitting of farewells. Blood and Wine is the swansong the franchise so richly deserves. An epic tale worthy of greatest theatres and even Dandelion himself!
Toussant is praised and renowned for its wealth and wine, and this final The Witcher outing is like indulging in a rare oak aged red.
If you want a great RPG, here you have it and don't doubt the qualities of the data disc. This is a wine of the highest quality, in which your blood boils.

Blood and Wine is a fantastic expansion and has everything you need to get you to blow off the dust of your copy of The Witcher 3. The expansion offers more than twice as many hours of gameplay as Hearts of Stone and stands like a house in terms of gameplay. If you loved Wild Hunt and Hearts of Stone, you'll buy Blood and Wine blindly. Cd Projekt RED Geralt could not have given a more dignified farewell than Blood and Wine!

An excellent send-off for Geralt and The Witcher 3, and although the jokes don’t always hit home the stunning visuals and breadth of content do.
Blood & Wine is an experience that is truly bittersweet. This is the hallmark of a studio at its peak, wholly confident and with nothing left to prove, but also still committed to delivering an expansion that’s more generous with its content than some full games – and which is good enough to be a Game of the Year contender in its own right.
Blood and Wine is equal parts triumphant and somber, a reminder of all the great times we’ve had with Geralt and some of the shitty things we’ve done in his shoes. It’s about facing down the totality of Geralt’s in-game legacy and—instead of regretting or redoing it—coming to terms with it.
Blood and Wine was exactly the great end CD Projekt Red brought to the Witcher series and Geralt's fantastic story.

Blood and Wine is what all expansions should aspire to be, is the perfect send-off for the series, and should be loved by anyone who enjoyed the base game.
What’s the saying? “Old witchers never die, they just fade away.” Something like that. One thing’s for certain: The Witcher 3 is one of the best RPGs I’ve ever played, and Blood and Wine is a fitting capstone not only on it but on the whole series. I’ll miss it.
In a time where an expansion pack is regularly nothing more than a new map or a couple of character gadgets, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Blood and Wine brings us something hearty and filling enough to prove that there's hope for DLC yet. Geralt's adventure in stunning Toussaint is an absolute triumph.
The era of DLC and Season Pass in profusion has made us somewhat hostile in the face of the expansion phenomenon, scalded too often by narrow content on sale at a disproportionate price. CD Projekt Red, on the other hand, proves to be made of completely different pasta: Blood and Wine is an expansion that, with only 20 euros, exceeds in quantity and quality the typical offer of modern titles, unable to offer the same level of content even in the main campaign.

Our review of Hearts of Stone mentioned that it was a shining example of how to create meaningful downloadable content, and yet Blood and Wine manages to top it in nearly every way imaginable.
Blood and Wine is not the epic "save the world" adventure prior Witcher titles were, but that's okay. It's a fond farewell to Geralt of Rivea, ensuring your last adventure with The Witcher leaves a smile on your face.
Blood & Wine is a fantastic goodbye to Geralt. I loved every minute of it and can’t wait to see what CD Projekt Red have in store for the future. I’m hopeful if there’s more in The Witcher series it comes with a refined combat system. Regardless of what they do, I’m confident it will be fantastic. But as for Blood & Wine, I’m glad I was able to see Geralt’s story finish up.
Blood and Wine feels like it was made as a loving goodbye to both Geralt and the Witcher series in general, as there’s so much attention to detail that it’s impossible not to regularly be in awe of it all. It’s the perfect bow on a game that has been nothing short of a gift that keeps on giving, and I expect it will continuing doing just that for all who fancy an adventure with a certain Witcher.
