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.

Critics Ratings
'41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Cabernet Franc, 22% Merlot, 8% Malbec and 7% Petit Verdot. Matured for 18 months in French oak barrels. Red and black berries, violets and fresh herbs plus a little earthiness on the nose. The palate is medium bodied with lovely freshness and fine tannins - elegant and still remarkably youthful.' - WineMag.co.za 2013 Vintage report (March 2023), 93/100
'More graceful than the 2012 - although that was a smashing wine in it own right - the fifth vintage of Chris Keet's exceptional, small volume Bordeaux style blend is elegance and perfume in a glass. Savoury spice, tobacco and floral aromas, berry fruit, tangy acidity and very subtle wooding: this is the work of a brilliant winemaker and blender.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 95/100
