Critics Ratings
'Consistency, sensitive approach Le Riche attributes; both evident in 04, without losing vintage character. Touch more sumptuous than std wine; structure, sweet fruit, oaking in balance with general lightness, for several yrs growth.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2009, 4.5*
'Rich and juicy but also lovely depth of fruit on the palate. Sappy and bright and already complex though there's still fresh fruit flavours. Really long and fresh even with that level of richness. Very young and a long life ahead (makes me wonder if the Rustenberg Cabernet 1982 was anything like this in its youth). Massive step up from the straight Cabernet.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (May 2009)
