About the Session

Just 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

Wine Enthusiast gave the 2013 vintage 94 points, describing it as "a structured and still young wine that needs to age. Its richness and fruit are there, but the tannins and the powerful mineral texture are still developing." Wine Spectator also awarded it 92 points, praising its "smoky, savory notes that accent the grapefruit, lime and passion fruit flavors, all backed by a bright, mouthwatering acidity."
