Critics Ratings

'Inky ruby 2012 is bold & has presence. Dark plums, mulberries mingle with vanilla oak on a firm broad-shouldered frame, providing a mouthful of textured bliss. Big 15.5% alcohol well hidden under focused fruit. Perfect for rare rump steak. Walker Bay WO. Various bottle formats.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5*

'Luddite is deliberately made in a big, pruney, late-picked style and certainly has its fans. Released with some bottle age, it's a dense, chewy, figgy wine with evident oak and an undertow of tannin. A wine that's true to its guiding philosophy. Drink 2016-19.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2016, 90/100
