About the SessionJust how well do modern-era South African wines perform as they get older ? One of the most important measures of great wine is that it should be age-worthy, that is it should become more pleasurable and more interesting to drink with time in the bottle.

Critics Ratings
'Palish ruby with broad, orange-tinged rim. Lovely inviting and multi-layered cherry-fruit nose with an exotic, spicy edge. Racy, red fruit with a firm structure. Ready now, and I wouldn't cling to it for too long. Wonderful depth and length.' - Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com, 17+/20 (Jun 2015)
'This gorgeous wine opens to a dark garnet appearance with inkier colors of crimson and ruby. Crisp and crunchy tones of wild berry, cranberry, red rose and dark mineral characterize the mouthfeel. This was a difficult vintage that saw slow and uneven ripening for many producers. Marco De Grazia has evidently mastered when to harvest his fruit at optimal ripeness.' - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, 92-94/100 (Sep 2015)
