Critics Ratings
Label features a Long Tom - which killed its designer on its first outing. This blend of Tinta Barocca, Cabernet Sauvignon, Souzão and Cinsaut is no such disaster: rich, nutty, gently elegant.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 1991, 4*
'It's not just because this [KWV Limited Release 1961] was made in my birth year that I find it such a delight. A mature Tawny style of great complexity, it's super sweet and concentrated with flavours of molasses, bitter chocolate and raisins. The spirit is beautifully integrated here. Drink: 2015-30' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2015, 94/100
