Critics Ratings
'The Dry Red was typically 2 thirds Cabernet Sauvignon and 1 third Cinsaut. One of the greatest vintage Rustenberg reds we have tasted. From a great vintage and much darker than other vintages, it is very deep and engaging with warming spice, herbs and red fruit. Medium to full-bodied, the fruit is mouth-coating and dense, leading to a textured, powerful finish. It will keep ageing for another few decades.' - Roland Peens, 95/100 (March 2026 – Tasted at recorking.)
