About this Item
Estate, 2009
6 (1 x 6) 750ml
In 1992, the late Giulio Bertrand retired to South Africa from Italy and bought the historic Morgenster farm on the slopes of the Schaapenberg, which dates back to 1711. Specialising in long-ageing Bordeaux-style reds, the director of Cheval Blanc, Pierre Luton, was hired as the consultant.
Critics Ratings
‘Youthful 2009 flagship shaped by its major cab, merlot partners (also petit verdot, cab franc). Rich in sweet fruit, dense ripe tannins & oak spice, all yet to harmonise. Plenty of time on its side.’ – Platter’s SA Wine Guide, 4.5* (2012)
