About the SessionJust how well do modern-era South African wines perform as they get older ? One of the most important measures of great wine is that it should be age-worthy, that is it should become more pleasurable and more interesting to drink with time in the bottle.

'Grapes from Paarl and Stellenbosch. Matured for 13 months in one-third new American oak, one-third new French and one-third older French oak barrels. Red and black berries, flowers, fynbos, pepper and other spice on the nose while the palate is full but balanced - a dense core of fruit, bright acidity and crunchy tannins. Still youthful and full of personality.'- WineMag.co.za 2013 Vintage report (March 2023), 93/100
Whiffs of white pepper over densely concentrated blue berry fruit, 2013 strongly built but supple, packed with accessible flavour; good line of acidity, wonderfully dry finish. 20% new oak, half American. 95% Paarl grapes, as for 2012.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
