In collaboration with cellarmaster, Luke O'Cuinneagain, this is their flagship single-vineyard blend. Sourced from a cool east facing slope, 'it's elegant, distinguished and venerable like its owner'.

Critics Ratings
'Grace & style defined, shows perfumed cedar & delineated cassis in a clean, cool, already delectable portion that lingers mid-2010. Splendour awaits, 5 years cellaring' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2013, 4.5*
'A solid, muscular style, exhibiting very Bordeaux-like notes of dark tobacco, mulled black currant and coffee up front, followed by a loamy edge on the broad, cassis bush-tinged finish. Lots of rugged character should flesh out nicely with modest cellaring. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Dec 2010)
