‘66% Cabernet Franc, 17% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Merlot – Shows savoury layers of earthy black fruit, blueberry, tilled earth, coffee beans and grilled herbs. The palate is creamy and textural, plush and fleshy, with smoky graphite, salted liquorice, sweet tobacco spice and black currant leaf. Plenty of stuffing on the mid-palate, this wine is powerful and impressively structured with stony minerality on the finish.’ – Greg Sherwood MW, 94+/100
‘66% Cabernet Franc, 17% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Merlot. Red and black berries, some herbal lift and a hint of rose on the nose. The palate shows good fruit definition, fresh acidity and tightly packed tannins. Well balanced and not too weighty – alcohol is 14%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 92/100
