Critics Ratings
'Run of quality started with landmark 94 Wine (5*). 99 leads with variety's stalky/brambly aromas and terse, abbreviated palate; huge tannins demanding time to soften, let raspberry/redcurrant flavours through. Should last 10 yrs. 100% varietal (except for 93). +-20 months French oak, 30% new.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2002
