Old Mutual Trophy Wine Show 2006 - Bronze John Platter 2006 - 41/2 Stars A Cape classic. Massive showcase 30 year single vineyard wine. Leads the pack in the Cederberg range. Limited ± 100 cases production. In different league, hand-crafted, classically styled 2003, made to mature (peak around ’09 – ’14) though already delicious. Serious looking deep almost black colour. The 100% new French oak aging for 18 months has added complexity to the rich, multi-layered plum and blackcurrent fruit flavours, with tobacco/mint and some earthy tones. A classically dry finish with a touch of Merlot (10%). Will reward patience but deserves a few years to give of its best. Bottled only in top years (no 2002).
ageing : Optimum 4 – 12 years
