Critics Ratings

'Admirable consistency, traditional styling and exhilarating fruit expression, 2005 has heady pimento spice layered with dense, tense palate, breath-taking finale.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2008, 4.5 Stars

'As part of a fine wine pairing dinner in March this year, I decanted the 2005 vintage and served it to guests 3 hours later. The wine only came to full bloom by the end of the evening, opening in the glass and showing a fantail of deep fruit and spice. Although mature now by most accounts, it is an absolute beast of a wine, retaining magnificent concentration, yet impressing with savory spice and dry grip. One of the wines of the evening in a stellar line-up.' - Higgo Jacobs, 2020
