About this Item
Crescendo was remarkable in that the wine was made in an austere, unapologetically tannic style, whilst the industry moved towards big plush reds.

Critics Ratings
‘Spicy ‘O2 (70% cabernet franc, 20% merlot, 10% cabernet sauvignon) will eventually emerge from gaunt, sulky youth dominated by wood & big dry tannins - fruit is there under well-fleshed musculature. (If impatient now, decant well in advance.) Unusually (for Keet) high 14.5% alc gives finish warmth, detracting a little from customary elegance.’ – Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2005, 4.5*
