Critics Ratings
'Quite ripe and rather full, with a nice velvety feel to the dark plum, mashed currant and fig paste notes, all laced with maduro tobacco and bittersweet cocoa hints. The muscular finish has an iron hint buried. Much better than on release, when it had an inconsistent showing. Drink now through 2022. 3,209 cases made.' - James Molesworth, Non-blind Kanonkop vertical tasting, Wine Spectator 2010, 91/100 & Top 100 listing
