‘Another classy Cabernet Sauvignon based blend, the aromatics are rich and powerful, packed full of sweet tobacco, earthy black currant, grilled herbs, iodine and graphite spice. The palate shows great generosity and fleshy opulence with layers of black and blueberry fruits, cherry tobacco, buttered brown toast and salty liquorice on the finish. A really classy but accessible Cape Bordeaux blend expression.’ – Greg Sherwood MW, 95+/100
‘63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc, 11% Merlot and 11% Malbec. The nose is currently shy – hints of cassis, violet and some leafiness. The palate is powerful and sleek – luscious fruit and bright acidity before a dry finish (alc: 14.5%).’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 92/100
