Critics Ratings
'Following on 2011 with plush fruit, impressive complexity, 2012 showcases the Le Riche skill with Cabernet Sauvignon. Smoothly curvaceous with polished tannins, the wine extends beyond fruit to fennel, cigarbox, an array of spices. Take your time here.'- Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
'There's slightly less new oak here than on the 2011 and I think the wine is better for it. The Le Riches have a gentler touch with Cabernet than almost anyone else in the Cape and this proves it. Classic Cabernet combining freshness with concentration, fruit weight with tannins. Drink: 2015-25.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2015, 95/100
