Critics Ratings

‘Loam, espresso and bittersweet cocoa notes lead the way to a dense core of steeped black currant and warm plum sauce flavors. The long, charcoal-lined finish has a plush feel, ending with a savory echo.’ - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 94/100 (Apr 2014)

‘(15% alcohol): Bright ruby-red. Piquant aromas of cassis, tobacco, fynbos and woodsmoke, accented by flinty minerality and pepper. Densely packed and concentrated, with saline and herbal nuances adding interest to the black fruit and dark chocolate flavors. Finishes serious, suave and very long, with dusty, toothcoating, ripe tannins and lingering notes of tobacco and brushy herbs. An essence of Stellenbosch cabernet.’ - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 92/100 (May 2013)
