Critics Ratings
'Densely layered, with flavors of red currant preserves, raspberry paste and bitter plum coulis. Stays refined, as fine-grained tannins and subtle cedar and singed vanilla notes are nicely embedded throughout. Reveals a pretty flash of iron at the very end. Best from 2018 through 2024.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Jun 2018)
'Adds origin to name. Delicacy & power commingle on 2014, mostly brought-in Valley fruit, splash home-farm cab franc. Brooding black cherry, cassis & cocoa are harmoniously supported by all-new French oak, down from 2013's 25 months to 18. Velvety & refined.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 4.5*
