Critics Ratings

‘Bright ruby core with light garnet rim. Nice red fruit that’s still holding good vibrant acidity, with rustic notes and a hint of coffee. Quite light and modern in style. Fair expression of a well matured Cape red.’ - Higgo Jacobs (Apr 2022)

'The nose is evolved with caramel and nutty notes to go with red and black berries plus some earthiness. The palate is chunky and rather rustic – sweet on entry but rather dried out on the finish.' - Christian Eedes, 94/100 (Apr 2022)
