Critics Ratings

'Confident entry of blackcurrant on 2012 Bordeaux trio led as always by Cabernet Sauvignon with dabs of Merlot and Petit Verdot. Deep, dark and concentrated but with superb balance and lightly harmonious fruit and oak. Poised and polished with gentle regal presence.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*

'Containing a higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon than normal (it can be as low as 75%, but is 90% here), this structured, focused Bordeaux blend (Merlot and a dash of Petit Verdot complete the cuvée) is sturdy and built to last, with notes of dried herbs, toasty oak and refreshing acidity. Drink: 2017-24.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2016, 94/100
