Critics Ratings
'Oldest vines in South Africa, apparently, planted 1905-20. A little stinky with reduction at the moment. Needs time/decanting. Cedary citrus aroma then really savoury and quite funkily reductive on the palate. Lean and long and needing time. Great concentration and length. Great wine but expensive.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (Oct 2012)
