About this Item
'The bouquet presents a harmonious blend of mint, oak, cherries and spice. On the palate it is mouth-filling with firm acidity. The almost sweet fruitiness and secondary flavours due to bottle maturation show classic Cabernet characteristics. The lingering aftertaste is clean and layered with appetising tannins.' - Winemakers tasting notes.

Critics Ratings
'Quietly assertive elegance, always well-balanced. Classy oak, rich fruit, unobtrusive underpinning of supple tannin and acid. Characterful finesse: a kind of joyous sombreness. Grapes from Jonkershoek and Firgrove. Traditional open fermentation, then 18-24 months in mostly new French oak.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2003, 5*
