'Max combines Cabernet Sauvignon grown on shale with 31% Merlot and 18% Petit Verdot on ironstone. It's a remarkable, age worthy red with grassy, floral aromas, fine dark berry fruit and meaty, structured tannins. 2018-26' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 94/100

'Healthy ruby-red. Sexy glossy oak tones complement cassis, black cherry, dark chocolate and licorice on the nose, with hints of spices and herbs adding lift. Very intense but also quite suave; much finer-grained and more sophisticated than The Introduction, conveying a distinctly drier impression but also more plushness and depth and a more powerful structure. Really noble texture here, and the toothdusting tannins are equally refined. Very long and gripping on the aftertaste. A lovely blend of traditional and modern.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 93/100 (Apr 2017)

'Highly perfumed cab-led Bordeaux red with merlot & petit verdot. 2014 rich & intense, its spicy dark cassis & liquorice tempered by perfectly judged oak (46% new French), supple tannin. Bottelary grapes.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 4.5* (93/100)
