Critics Ratings
'Lavish 2014, like 2013 (4.5 stars, 94 points), Cabernet-based with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot to create complex, cellar-worthy flagship. Bold yet lively, cassis and mulberry combine well with graphite, cedar and spices on firm but refined tannins.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2020, 5* (95/100)
'The 2014 release has less Cabernet Sauvignon and more Cabernet Franc than the 2013 and is better for it in my opinion. It's another wine that lives up to the Bordeaux pedigree of its owner, May-Eliane de Lencquesaing, with violets and graphite on the nose, notes of chocolate and mint, fine tannins and a long, refreshing finish. 2021-29.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 96/100
