‘From an Abbotsdale vineyard planted in 1988 on alluvial soils. Fermented on the skins for 14 days before being matured in old 500-litre French oak barrels for 10 months. Very fragrant with note of potpourri, orange, peach and spice. The palate of this vintage has an intriguing structure being quite dense but not overly tannic, the acidity moderate. Perhaps not quite as arresting as usual but still full of flavour. Alc: 12%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100
