98 | Great colour, purple tints; lovely cassis, mulberry fruit driven bouquet, plush and lovely, intense and svelte textured, long and beautifully balanced. A very elegant, poised wine. Cabernet drives it.

96 | Ripe, plummy fruit with lovely richness and brightness. I love the perfect ripeness and the intensity of the fruit. I love the brightness, flow and harmony of the palate. Great balance.

95 | Very youthful colour for age. Pure black fruits, cassis, bramble. Wood smoke. chocolate. Lovely slippery silky palate. Lots of appeal.

92 | sturdy well made generous, fruit and tannins, the wine firms up on the palate and gets tighter, its still a baby and will be better with food
