Critics Ratings
‘Cabernet at its finest. ‘04 our 2009 (5 stars) Wine of the Year, ‘05 sold out before we got a chance! ‘06 has power and grace. Blackcurrant, cedar aromas & vivid, succulent fruit are compelling, embraced by firm but surprisingly approachable tannins.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2010, 4.5*
