About this Item
After nearly two decades at Tokara’s helm, Miles Mossop had the time to fine-tune his own brand. Miles Mossop Wines was established in 2004 with the vision to create wines unique in character, expressing the true nature of South Africa and the sites from which the grapes are sourced. It is a family business with Miles Mossop as winemaker and viticulturist including wines that are named after Miles and Samantha Mossop's three children.
This wine comes from Miles Mossop's flagship range of wines dedicated to his family which is one of the most important things in my life. Each wine in this contemporary range of fine wine bears the name of a family member. Each an expression of the highest quality in their style, reflecting a sense of place and unmistakably South African. Produced with fruit forward character, balance, texture and age-ability in mind.

Critics Ratings
'Miles Mossop has a very fine touch with Bordeaux varieties, honed at Tokara as well as on his own wines. This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with 24% Merlot and 22% Petit Verdot is all about finesse and poise with savoury black olive and mineral notes and filigree tannins.' -Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 94/100
'Gorgeous & highly perfumed cab-led Bordeaux-style 2015 (merlot 24%, petit verdot 22%) in perfect balance: no edges, just pristine black fruit, whiffs of tobacco & polished leather, firm but integrated tannin structure & assimilated 35% new French wood.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2019, 4.5* (93/100)
