About this Item

De Trafford
Cabernet Sauvignon, 2001
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Wedged between the Stellenbosch and Helderberg mountains, situated on the beautiful Mont Fleur farm, is the boutique De Trafford winery. The Trafford family purchased the land in 1976 and a small vineyard was in place by 1983.

Critics Ratings

‘Good medium ruby-red. Complex, ripe aromas of raspberry, coffee, smoke and underbrush. Impressively lush and sweet, with compelling flavors of black raspberry, graphite and chocolate lifted by underlying graphite and mineral notes. Finishes with big, lush, chewy, sweet tannins and excellent persistence.’ - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 90/100 (Mar 2005)

'There’s a nice minerally, cedary edge to the ripe fruit on the nose. The palate is elegant and ripe with chewy blackcurrant fruit with a chalky, mineralic edge. Very elegant. Very good/excellent.' - Jamie Goode, Wineanorak.com
