Critics Ratings
'Though style rather than variety determines the blend, the two 'Ms' - supple, luxurious Merlot and minerally Malbec - are major influences here. '04 is marginally more accessible than 'C', though both need a minimum of 5 years. Sophisticated composition of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Cabernet Sauvignon Franc (36/31/25/8); ripe, velvety with dense tannin, focussed freshness. French oak, 37% new, for 19 months.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2007, 4.5*
'Series M is based on Merlot and Malbec, with the two Cabernets also in the blend. Very modern in style, it has polished elegance, packs a punch of black fruits, dense mulberry flavors and long, smooth oak tastes.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 93/100 (Nov 2006)
