'Smoky, dark-chocolate aromas. Only a little herby note. High acid to clean the finish. Almost austere. Perfumed violet aromas linger on the length.'- Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Sep 2018)
'Cabernet Franc is increasingly a focus at Warwick, and rightly so. This single vineyard expression, part of which goes to the Trilogy blend, is scented, leafy and textured with a hint of graphite and stylish oak integration. 2018-25.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 94/100'
'..The fresh bouquet is ,more Bordeaux-inspired than Loire, featuring blackberry, cedar, freshly picked mint, and a hint of crushed violet that develops with time. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, a fine line of acidity, and touches of bell pepper infusing the grainy, nicely structured finish. This is a fine varietal that shows what can be done with Stellenbosch Cabernet Franc.' - Neal Martin, Vinous, 91/100 (Aug 2018)
