  Not decanted and interesting from the off, but more flavours developed over an hour. Red fruit /cherry nose, rich cherry fruit with a mid-palate whoosh where scents (violets) and spices separate out revealing its complexity. Long, tannins soft and good balance. Deserves attention.

  Lunch with friends at home (Elgin South Africa): Savoury bouquet; the nose is gentle with raspberry and morello cherry elements.
  A juicy entry with plenty of ripe black and red plum fruits, plum skin texture, and broad mid-palate structure. Quite intense, the tannins are compact and grippy with a fruit infusion. The wine isn’t elegant but works with an underlying richness or perhaps succulence balanced by a sour cherry tartness that pushes the wine along.

  Vibrant, juicy and fresh. Savoury but with sweet fruit it's just so elegant and light on its feet. There's sour cherry fruit developing a little black tea and a silky texture. It has a really pleasing persistent finish. Just a pity it was my last bottle!

  Lean, but very soft and juicy, with subtle red cherry fruit with a sensuous mouthfeel and fine length of finish, just let down by a slightly bitter metallic note. Very enjoyable nonetheless. CHP 88 pts

  A dark garnet hue. Nose of dark berry fruits, violets and floral notes, along with earth and a saline tinge. On the palate, a lovely texture that reminds of a very fine cotton, soft and enveloping. The dark berry fruit is concentrated, well defined, and ripe but with a mineral undertone and nice acid lift. Tannins are prominent but also ripe and dissipating creating an almost chalky mouthfeel. Nice dry extract on the mid palate with a dry and balanced finish that is slightly mouth puckering and quite persistent. This is drinking well, but still quite young in character and likely has more development ahead. Excellent value.
