About this Item

1994 Cape Vintage Reserve
1 (1 x 1) 750ml

The 1994 De Krans Cape Vintage Reserve has excellent aging potential. Well-stored bottles can continue to evolve and develop additional complexity for several decades, making it a wine suitable for long-term cellaring.

Critics Ratings

‘Stylish, improving with each vintage, in drier, “new Cape” style. To date all Tinta Barocca. (Touriga Naçional, Roriz and Souzão into production in 1997). ‘94 almost opaque plummy purple, still immature but rich, sweet prune aroma, concentrated palate, intense fruity flavours. Very dry for the Cape at 85g/l sugar.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 1997, Very Good Cape Wine
