Awards,
Reviews and other Notes
Wine of the Year 5 Stars ***** 2009 John Platter's South African Wines 04 delivers resplendently complex cedar/cassis aromas & ripe blackcurrant flavours, with defining savoury, herbal edge. Well-absorbed 26 months 50% new oak frames flavoursome, textured finish. 90 pts Wine Spectator 12/16/09 Insider
Ripe and full-bodied, with delicious black currant, fig and licorice snap flavors that glide through the polished finish. A dash of loam adds length. Bottle age has tamed this, but it still has plenty of life. Drink now through 2011
