Critics Ratings

'2010 shows savoury cedar whiffs, with bright cherry & strawberry aromas powering through tealeaf cigar box spice. Plush tannins, sweet berry notes. Integrated 80% new French oak; natural ferment. Even more vibrant, detailed than finely managed 2009 (4.5 stars).' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 5* (2012)

'15-16 months in French oak (60% new). Mid ruby. A touch smoky but quite subtle with only a light note of oak spice, giving a more savoury character overall. Lively, silky and fresh and a light hand in the winery has allowed the pretty fruit to shine.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5/20 (Mar 2012)
