Critics Ratings

'2008 is much riper, more alcoholic mould, in difficult vintage. Intense & sumptuous dark berries, powerful oak in support' - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2013, 4.5*

‘2008, like its big brother, exudes a riper fruit profile than 2007 (4.5 stars). Plush, sweet cherry combines with dry cocoa, but lacks elegance of usual house style. Ends dry with firm tannins.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2012, 4*
