Critics Ratings
'A browning colour gives away the age that is otherwise well concealed in this youthful Cabernet. Light in style for this property, with only 13.5% alcohol. Elegant garrigue and mint flavours with cedar and soft plummy fruit. Delicate and harmonious. This must be very stable to be showing in this condition, but best not to take chances and drink in its peak. Impressive.' - Higgo Jacobs, 2017
