Critics Ratings

'The Le Riches make some of the best Cabernet Sauvignons in Stellenbosch, and this stellar 2015 is no exception. Still closed right now, as you'd expect from such a vintage, this has layers of mocha oak, some green herbs, bright acidity and a vigorous core of dark fruit. One for the cellar. 2020-30' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 94/100

'Very focused nose with sufficient but not excessive fruit on the palate. Blend of dry cassis and stones. Clean and fresh with impressive length.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5/20 (Feb 2020)

'Luscious and plush, with cedar, tobacco and leather aromas ceding to a fleshy, layered palate with notes of graphite, gravel and blackberry spice. A serious effort.' - Tim Atkin, Decanter.com, 93/100 (Aug 2018)

'Bold and structured, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve has black and red fruits with oak spice and pleasing dusty florals. The palate is structured and broad with elegant brown baking spices. It is full-bodied with classic beauty and mineral grip, ending with an elegant and textured expression. This wine is delivering nicely for its youth but will deliver even better with age. 9,500 bottles were made.' - Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate, 93+/100 (May 2019)
