Critics Ratings

2011:
'Magisterial Cabernet Sauvignon with a concentrated, impressive presence. 2011 is evolving splendidly, the tannins just starting to meld with the fruit, for drinking with pleasure and respect.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 4.5*

2012:
2012 has some early harmony & notably good savoury balance, getting closest to elegance of the three (though sweet notes on finishes detract for all). ' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 5* (97/100)

'Sweet, creamy cassis fruit. Chewy tannin and overt vanilla oak on the finish. Dry, slightly astringent finish with a touch of sourness.'- Richard Hemming (MW), JancisRobinson.com, 16/20 (Jun 2017)

2013:
'2013 shows more primary fruit, but perhaps less intensity of flavour than previous vintages, and the structure dominating. Nonetheless, also grand.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 4.5* (93/100)

'Big, bold, serious and built to age in bottle, this is a compact, weighty Cabernet Sauvignon with 70% new oak, firmish tannins and a core of dark damson and cassis fruit complemented by notes of mocha, coffee bean and refreshing acidity. 2020-28.' - Tim Atkin SA Special Report 2017, 92/100
