Critics Ratings
The 2009 was been hailed as the best of the decade and is powerfully built, winning International Judges' Trophy and Gold Medal at the Old Mutual Wine Show.
Matured for 24 months in French oak, 64% new. Intense black in colour. The nose shows dark fruit and attractive oak notes. The palate possesses extraordinary power - great fruit concentration, fresh acidity and firm but fine tannins. The finish, meanwhile, is long and salty. Excellent structure and still very youthful. - 94/100 10-Year-Old Wine Report 2019 - Winemag.co.za
