Critics Ratings
2009
'Big wine, showing the vintage's structure, concentration and intensity. Cabernet in the driving seat with dark fruit, graphite and mint. Subtle eucalypt perfume too. Fine, powdery tannins. Still an infant.' - Higgo Jacobs (Feb 2021), 95/100
A truly great vintage, offering more structure and excellent freshness. It is pure, elegant, and fine with some spice new oak still evident. Very seriously built, fine balance and great length. Drink now to 2040' - Roland Peens (Feb 2021)
