Critics Ratings
'Ripe and very slightly minty on the nose (thanks to one particular clone). Very very fresh, silky. Acidity is quite marked. Bright and dry. More minty on the palate than eucalyptus. A brave style that demands more time in bottle.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5/20 (May 2009)
'Lighter, fresher feel to 04. Careful oaking (30% new) & extraction focuses usual mint-trimmed cassis, allows satisfying shorter-term drinking than 03, one of the stars of a gorgeous vintage, with long legs for ageing.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2009, 4*
