Not blind First we thought about a corked bottle but I think it is the dustieness of old South African wines. I bought the bottle a few years ago and was with a good filling and colour. After one hour too much green notes of unripe cabrrnet sauvignon.and franc. Not balanced and over the top. 88

Very little to distinguish this from a mature, high quality bdx blend from Napa, not sure if that's praise or not. That said, it's really good still, but still just driven by maturing currant fruit and modest oak. Drink up.

Perfect bottle. Red berries, cigar box and well integrtated. Still some 5+ years ahead. No hurry to drink up.
