Critics Ratings

'Darkly brooding 2010, mainly cab with 14% petit verdot; naturally fermented, 80% new oak. Intoxicating mix of cassis & perfume on the nose giving way to ripe (never jammy) blackberries, some tar, cedar & heady spices. Wrapped up in velvety tannins, a wine fit for the grandest occasions.' - Platter's Guide SA Wine Guide, 5* (2015)

'86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petit Verdot. Wonderfully engaging aromas of red and black fruit, the leafy note so typical of this farm present but subtle and entirely likeable, violets, pencil shavings and some milk chocolate. Excellent flavour intensity, bright acidity and fine tannins - extremely well balanced and lovely length. One of the most confident and sophisticated Bordeaux-style reds tasted in a long time.' - Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100
