Critics Ratings
'A blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. Amazing consistency across quite a few bottles. Super fresh, touch of mint, bright pasture notes, red fruit. Lots of flavour and depth. Frankly it's in an amazing shape, with well-balanced acidity and fine tannins. Composed and structure for longer ageing.' - Roland Peens, 95/100 (Mar 2023)
'Bright red colour with a tiny edge of brown. Lots of red fruit comes through on the nose, displaying a delightful freshness on both nose and palate. The youthfulness of this wine is impressive. An elegant and soft mouthfeel carries the red fruit with a touch of sweetness from the varieties forward. Long lasting flavours on the palate with still a good portion of tannin to balance the wine perfectly and let it mature for a few more years. Cab (50) Shiraz (50)' - Bennie Howard CWM (Mar 2023)
