This Cabernet Sauvignon was crafted from the ultra-low-yielding original vines on the
estate, planted in 1987, along with fruit from the neighbouring Abbey Vale vineyard,
planted in 1985. The ferments were assessed daily, and pumpovers were performed as
required to gently extract colour, flavour and tannin. The wine was gently pressed to a
combination of new and seasoned French barriques, where it matured in oak for 18
months.
Deep redcurrant and mulberry in hue, with immediate aromas of red florals, cherry wood,
cedar and intense currant, supported by cassis, bay leaf and brine. The palate shows
preserved power and poise, with a seamless, compact tannin profile that will unfold over
time but is, for now, saline and youthful. Flavours of Dutch cacao powder, tobacco and
complex spice meet sweet fruit notes, presenting a very fine Cabernet with balance and class.

James Suckling – What a release of this almost-cult wine. Aromatic lift and real depth of flavor with red and black currants, potpourri, cocoa beans and fresh blue fruit as well as blood plums, black cherries, cedar and iron. The profound palate has textural, refined and approachable tannins with a mineral, mouthwatering edge. The cool vintage shows in the wine’s soft, flirtatious appeal. Slightly atypical in style but excellent. Drink or hold. Screw cap. 97 points. Ryan Montgomery, jamessuckling.com Jul 2025
