Critics Ratings
Alto Cabernet Sauvignon 1984
'Brick edged mid-cerise. Smokey, slightly earthy aromas, leathery, old Cabernet notes. Now at its peak, falling away a little on the finish but still holding together well and showing great elegance and finesse.' - Michael Fridjhon, WineWizard.co.za, 91/100 (Apr 2013)
Alto Cabernet Sauvignon 1988
'Always unblended Cabernet, from low-crop, unirrigated mountain vines. '88 brilliant ruby colour, plummy aroma; though elegant, restrained, palate lined with solid fruit, some spicy/tarry notes. Definitive blend of Old/New Worlds. Winemaker: Hempies du Toit.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 1996, 4*
