Critics Ratings

'Complex, elegant, balanced '06 is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Rustenberg's finest vineyard, 100% new oak. Multi-layered intense cassis, black cherries and powerful tannins with a mineral undertone. As for '05 and previous vintages, ageing will be richly rewarded. Natural fermentation, unfiltered.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2010, 4.5*

'A dark, brawny style, with dense black currant paste and fig sauce notes liberally laced with roasted apple wood, chestnut and tobacco notes. The dark, smoldering finish has plenty of heft in reserve for a touch more cellaring.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Sept 2011)
