Critics Ratings

'But let me make this clear if a decade's worth of reviews haven't made it clear enough already: David Trafford makes some of the most distinctive, compelling wine in South Africa.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator

'Regal Cape Cabernet from parsimonious 1kg fruit per vine. David Trafford's "threshold for great wine". 2006 is astonishing in its currant & tobacco leaf focus, powder-fine tannins & deft integration. Wonderful! 7% Petit Verdot' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2009, 4.5*
