Critics Ratings
'Benefits of good vintage, increased clean vine material evident in 01. Compact, austere yet with ripeness in body (14% alc); supple fruit, in usual understated mode. 14% alc. 15 months new French oak.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2005
'Nice, with a mix of red and black currant fruit, tobacco, chocolate, toasted herb and sanguine notes that stay racy through the finish.' - Wine Spectator 89/100 (2005)
