Critics Ratings

'Even with new virus-free vines coming on stream, elegance remains hallmark of this cellar's Cabernet. Such easier-ripening material not available in cool 1997, mirrored in lighter than usual texture (though fullish 13% alcohol), firm acid core, relatively developed herby, sweet mint notes. Finely calibrated oak binds into a pleasant-drinking whole.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2001, 4*
