Critics Ratings

Cabernet Franc takes lead (51%) in the blend with Cabernet Sauvignon 16 months French oak, 80% new; 14% alc. Winemaker Marius Lategan says the hand of consultant master blender Pierre Lurton is written all over the wine' - Platters SA Wine Guide 2004, 4*

'The superbly poised and elegant 2000 Morgenster has aged beautifully. Much like a right-bank Bordeaux, it offers fine red fruits, florals and meaty complexity. Tasted alongside the 100 point Cheval Blanc 1998, it was the better wine on the night! ' - Roland Peens, 96/100 (June 2019)
