Critics Ratings

Boekenhoutskloof Cabernet Sauvignon 2004:
‘Classic in style & age-worthiness. Superb 2004 (5*) echoes with claret-like minerality; fresh, intense fruit, fragrance & spice from complementary new Fr oak (27 months). Sophisticated focus, tension; only in youth are brooding tannins curtailing sweet-fruited richness. Single hillside Franschhoek vineyard. Unfiltered.’ – Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2007, 5*

Kanonkop Paul Sauer 1998:
'It has a very expressive nose of cassis, cigar box and earthiness while the palate displays plenty of pure, concentrated fruit, smooth but not slippery tannins and moderate acidity. Depending on your frame of mind, it can easily be considered a superlative wine.' - Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 18/20 (2012)

"Stony mineral elegance stunning foil for 98, fatter wine though Initially reticent, with watermark 'Kanonkop' herbaceousness.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2003, 5*

Le Riche Cabernet Sauvignon 2007:
'2006 plush-fruited, with dry cocoa, savoury bellpepper. Elegant & juicy to end. This & 2007 with trademark confident tannins, but more accessible than big brothers in range; more red-berry freshness & elegance on the younger vintage. 18 mths oak, 30% new.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2011, 4.5*
