About this Item

Estate, 2004
5 (1 x 5) 750ml

In 1992, the late Giulio Bertrand retired to South Africa from Italy and bought the historic Morgenster farm on the slopes of the Schaapenberg, which dates back to 1711. Specialising in long-ageing Bordeaux-style reds, the director of Cheval Blanc, Pierre Luton, was hired as the consultant.

Critics Ratings

'Aristocratic Old-World-style flagship. 2004 Merlot driven (69%) with Cabernet Sauvignon & Franc (1714). Perfumed, plush, persistent; tapered tannins contributing to fine, noble structure, seemingly endless finish.' - Platter SA Wine Guide 2008, 4.5*
