Critics Ratings
'The stand-out, however, was Kanonkop Paul Sauer 1993. Red and blackberries, violets and herbs on the nose while the palate showed relatively dense fruit, bright acidity and fine tannins. Lovely poise but equally power given that this was apparently a wet vintage. So absolutely of the property and not at all hindered by having an alcohol of just 13% compared to 14.47% as is the case with the much celebrated 2015.' - Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100 (2019)
