“Deep-ish red with a good bright tint of purple and the bouquet is all about mulberry, cassis, blackberry—sweetly ripe fruit without any greener touches. It’s also deliciously sweet and fruit-ripe on the tongue, with charming fruit flavours of berries and a hint of cola or sarsaparilla, the tannins supplying excellent structure and adding to the very long aftertaste. An outstanding cabernet. Long cellaring potential but it’s also delicious to drink young. Drink 2024 – 2040. 95pts.”
Huon Hooke – The Real Review
“This is a pure, clean, elongated cabernet, fruity both on the attack and through the centre but then crisp and autumnal to close. Blackcurrant, redcurrant, peppercorn and tobacco/herb notes run amiably throughout, the body medium in weight at most, but the finish sustained. 92pts.”
