Critics Ratings
'Different site (Hemel-en-Aarde Valley single-vineyard), 30% new oak, make 13 (4.5*) sturdier than Moya but equally fine, complex. Meaty, peppery red fruit aromas, flavours. Characterful, with enlivening acidity & minerality, similar admirable focus to streamlined 12 ' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
'100% 115 clone on clay, near Hamilton Russell. Planted first in 2008. Super charming with refined tannins and real edginess. Less obviously sweet than the Moyas. Great structure. Very grown-up. Very pure finish.' - Jancis Robinson (September 2015), 17/20
'Features a solid core of lightly mulled cherry and blackberry fruit, with hints of black tea, singed cinnamon and sous-bois holding sway through the finish. Retains a perfumy, elegant feel... 350 cases made.' - Wine Spectator (May 2016), 92/100
