August 26, 2023 - Clear deep ruby/purple; clean medium plus nose of red currant, plum jam, hint of green pepper, cocoa and florality; dry; high acidity; medium plus tannins; high alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus to pronounced flavour intensity; palate is tarter with cocoa dominating; medium plus to long finish; drink now or in 10 years; fantastic wine - juicy without being a fruit bomb

June 9, 2021 - Pretty standard Cabernet Sauvignon, with usual dark fruit notes. Lacking complexity, had higher hopes especially after tasting their excellent 2017 Syrah

April 5, 2021 - 91+ Young and angular but showing excellent potential. Deep ruby in the glass.
Nose is powerful but not harmonious. Green bell pepper, juicy fruit notes of strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, leather and black pepper.
Tannins are firm but fine. Mouthwatering acidity. Slightly hot.
Flavours are rich and jammy with blackberry, plum and blackberry, spicy black pepper, tobacco and espresso.
Long, fruit-dominant finish.
Drink 2023-2035.
