De Trafford CWG Perspective 2003
Auction Year 2005: The two best barrels of Cabernet Franc and the best barrel of Merlot were chosen from wines produced from the Mont Fleur vineyard site high up on the eastern slopes of the Helderberg mountain.
Tasting Note: Complex, spicy fruit and oak entwined with cranberry nuances. Purity of fruit and spicy, dusty oak on the palate persists on the long dry finish.
Hartenberg CWG Shiraz 2010
Auction Year 2013: The wine is a blend of one barrel of Gravel Hill and two barrels of Stork Shiraz.
Tasting Notes: Deep, black-red in colour. Black and red fruits show on the palate. Perfumed notes with treacle aromas are also present. The palate is velvety, has juicy fruit and is elegant.

De Trafford CWG Perspective 2003
‘Bright crimson. Rather a grassy nose. Good ripe refreshing fruit on the palate with fine tannins. Quite inky on the finish but certainly fully ripened fruit.’ - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20 (Dec 2005)
