Critics Ratings
'All-Cabernet flagship as handsome as its venerable Simonsberg origin. Meticulous focus from grape (individually tagged bunches, stringent 3-pass harvest) to cellar (20 months in French barrels, 70% new, unfiltered). 2003 boldly ripe; sultry cassis lurks under grainy cloak mid-2005, sweet finish somehow keeps 15.5% alcohol at bay.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2006, 4.5*
