Critics Ratings

'Strength of Merlot evident in 2014 (50% with 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot). Brings plushness, grandeur to this flagship; other components add the structure, precision and ageing potential. Amazing poise, freshness for 15% alcohol.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 4.5*

'The new vintage of Classique, made mostly from Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, is the best yet. It's an ambitious, stylish, abundantly aromatic wine with very fine tannins, leafy, spicy, dark berry fruit and hints of cedar wood and fresh pine. One of the Cape's best Bordeaux red blends. Drink: 2018-27.' - Tim Atkin SA Special Report 2016, 95/100
