Critics Ratings
'Honouring Cinsaut, the workhorse red grape of earlier times. From 43 year old vines, bunch ferment, unfined/filtered. Redcurrants and cherries on the 2012, touch of scrub, and elegantly structured, the tannins mainly from the grapes, giving purity and length.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2014, 4.5*
'A stylish, perfumy wine, with alluring singed sandalwood, rooibos tea, red currant, white pepper, floral and blood orange notes all woven together and carrying through the long, silky finish.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Jun 2014)
