Critics Ratings
'Latest '97 brilliantly packaged as ever; shimmering saffron heralds cornucopia of tropical scents layered with spice, creamy, freshly baked apple pie, all deliciously cut by tart, sweet-sour citric twist in the tail. Handles 15% alcohol with aplomb. Picked ultra-ripe (42°B) rounded-off for 18 months in seasoned 500l oak barrels.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2002, 4.5*
Candied orange peel, cherries, and spices are intermingled with hints of honey in its gorgeously defined aromatics. This wine, produced entirely from Muscat, is lively, elegant, packed with nuanced flavours, and sports a long, supple, expressive finish.' - Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate, 93/100 (Feb 2003)
