Critics Ratings

'The stony, bony soils here produce small quantities of small berries, showing more austerity and focus than The Stork. Fine and taut with flavours of liquorice, new oak sweetness and a smoky core of bramble and blackberry fruit. A great site for Syrah and a correspondingly characterful, soil-driven wine. Drink: 2017-26' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2015, 94/100

'Fruit purity of 2010 ably framed by subtle violet, spice & pepper nuances. Layered, textured, elegant & refined, it speaks of its gravelly vineyard. Superbly smooth, with wonderful integration of all-new oak & fruit. Lithe yet restrained, one for the long haul.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5* (2015)
