Critics Ratings
'The Le Riches source fruit from Firgrove, Raithby and Jonkershoek to make this refined, fragrant, age worthy Cabernet Sauvignon. Elegant yet well structured, with plenty of grip and tannin and layers of youthful dark berry fruit. A red that's made to age gracefully.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 94/100.
'More new oak (62%) & longer sojourn than its more restrained (different vintage) sibling, in harmony with ample fruit profile. 2014 complex & layered - a big-boned, brooding beauty. Lots of character & interest, youthful, with a promising future.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 4.5* (93/100)
