    Trusted by the professionals

    As is to be expected, it is a graceful wine with poised cassis tones and hints of flowering herbs, cedar, sage, fine spice, some distant spearmint, bay leaf and black olive. There is a touch of morello cherry as the wine fades with lovely fine-grained savoury tannin grip and a tail of spice and elegant black and red fruits.

    — Dave Brooks, James Halliday Wine Companion, 97 Points

    Deep-ish red tinged with purple, the bouquet loaded with green-bean/fresh-herb and berry varietal fruit, seamlessly entwined with cedary oak, the fruit evoking mulberry, raspberry and cassis while the palate is elegantly shaped and refined in texture, with fine grained powdery tannins providing a subtle backdrop of structure. A very elegant and complex cabernet of charm and beauty.
