Critics Ratings
2006 - ‘Serious, elegant flagship, increasingly applauded. Tasted mid-2007, refined, steely ‘05 still oakier than current 2006 which highlights minerality and pure fruit, built on uncompromisingly elegant lines.' - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2008, 4.5*
2007 - ‘Uncompromisingly elegant, award-winning flagship. 2007’s citrus and buttery tones complemented by minerals, notably long. Refined 13.3% alcohol.' - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2009, 4.5*
