Product Description
RP98+ "Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate needs a lot of swirling and coaxing to unlock notions of blackcurrant pastilles, warm black plums and mulberries, plus hints of black olives, tilled soil, mossy tree bark and violets with emerging baker's chocolate and star anise hints. Full-bodied, rich, concentrated and with impeccable poise, it has beautifully ripe, grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing epically long and earthy." LPB for TWA Nov 2021
LP98 "A blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Cabernet Franc, just under 5% of it aged in amphoras, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple colored. It rolls out of the glass with youthful notes of warm cassis, blackberry pie, wild blueberries, and vanilla pod, giving way to notes of chocolate box and violets. The full-bodied palate is rich, spicy, and generous with velvety tannins and just enough freshness, leading to a long and fragrant finish on this beautiful wine." LPB for TWI Sep 2022
JS98 "Gorgeous blackberry and currant aromas with hints of herbs. Wonderfully varietal character. Full-bodied with tannins that frame the wine so nicely and create a long, lightly chewy finish. Fantastic wine. Available in October. Drinkable now, but give it three to four years." JS Feb 2022
DR98 "Deep, dark and alluring nose of black fruit, rich cedar and cigar box. Well-built, beautiful and balanced, with deeply concentrated, yet fresh and ripe flavours of blackberry, cassis and fleshy plum, unspooling with lifted acidity, tobacco, wet slate, river stones, dark chocolate and an endless finish. A delicious wine that is framed by very fine and elegant tannins, almost powdery. Finishes with energy and freshness. A joy to drink. Biodynamic. (Drink between 2022-2040)" JC for DR Jun 2022
