About this Item

De Toren
Z 2007
6 (1 x 6) 750ml
De Toren "Z" was created by design born of cool ocean facing vineyards high in clay content conditions intensely suited to the planting of Merlot. Affectionately called 'Zee', this approachable ruby-hued beauty takes its name from the cooling Zephyr breeze that air conditions the ocean-fronting vineyard block of its origin, one in which are featured all of the 'Noble Five' Bordeaux varietals, with Merlot dominance. This soft, approachable ruby-hued beauty is a true testament to vines lovingly reared and winemaking raised to an art form.

Critics Ratings

'A cooler vintage offering mint and strawberry. Milk chocolate and red fruits blend to a mellow, lacy finish. Superb balance. Drink now to 2026' - Roland Peens (Feb 2021)

'This lush red starts with aromas of cinnamon, plum and pepper, leading into a balance of black fruit, fresh acidity, warming spices and smoke. Rich but balanced by lively lift, it's a great food wine that will pair well with robust meat dishes.' - Susan Kostrzewa, Wine Enthusiast, 92/100 (Mar 2010)

'Different take on classic 'Bdx 5' & counterpoint to sibling, 07 has merlot & cab f centre stage, allowing violets & blueberries a look-in on the plummy fruit. Silky texture gives earlier drinking, lots of pleasure.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2010, 4*
