Critics Ratings
‘Mature mahogany; roasted coffee, caramel fruit, sweet.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 1997, Very Good Cape Wine
‘Recent versions slightly drier (<95 g/k sugar), less spirituous (18% alc.), shorter time in wood (now 8.5 years). Latest 1995 red-onion skin hues, marzipan nose adds icing to Xmas cake tone, venison pie, pipe tobacco nuances for interest.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2005, 4*
