Critics Ratings

'More elegant after the powerful 2010 (4.5*), yet still flavour-packed, 2011 showcases Cabernet Sauvignon's complexity. Loganberries, violets, creamy plums, a fennel seed nuance, masterly oaked, polished and supple after 24 months French barrels, 70% new.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2015, 5*

'Traditional shallow tanks. Inoculated yeast. Total time on skins 10-20 days. Usually 8% press wine. 7% new barriques. A little tough and austere. Savoury tobacco nose. A bit austere at the moment.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5+/20 (Jan 2015)
