Critics Ratings

'A classy and delicious mature Cabernet Sauvignon from Tinnie Momberg in the heyday of Middlevlei. The nose is quite dusty and backward at first, but with time becomes alluring and open with dense sweet cassis and dried herbs. Beautifully balanced and elegant, with firm, deft tannins and sweet fruited finish. Quite Long and lacy. Very good. Drink over the next decade or two.' - Roland Peens 94/100, (July 2025)
