Critics Ratings
'Powerful, plush and concentrated, this Stellenbosch Mountain Syrah, all of it from the De Trafford property, is rich and plush, with layers of tannin, Mediterranean herbs and Asian spices, stylish oak and the promise of much more to come in bottle. Drink 2019-27.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 95/100
'2014 in full-bodied house style of recent vintages with savoury nuances (black olive tapenade, sun-dried tomato & salami), well-polished tannins, elevated 15.8% alcohol hardly noticeable. Unfined/filtered, as all reds. Also in 1.5 & 3L.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5*
