Critics Ratings

'The 2005 Paul Sauer offers an exuberant bouquet with dried prune, licorice, a touch of caramel and fig that just soars from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a harmonious, focused opening. The tannins lend the 2005 a firm structure, but there is plenty of fruit to back it up and the finish fans out with luscious licorice, sea salt and black fruits that linger. Superb. Drink 2014-2025.' - Neal Martin, Robertparker.com, 93/100 (2013)

'Confident, refined 05, 70% cab with equal merlot/cab f spent 2 yrs in new casks after traditional ferm in open kuipe. Seductive cedar, spice & richly layered fruit will appeal to eager audience, as will plush, lengthy finish. 14.5% alc. 2008 Calyon trophy for 04.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5* (2009)
