First red wine after the four Sauvignon Blancs, this bottling use to be called the Marlbrook until the first vintage in 2011 under the Estate name. Deep ruby red with dark red berries on the nose, some spices, woody elements and a touch savory. Medium tannins (6.5/10) with a medium to medium plus body. Notes of black currants, twigs and earth. Medium plus to long finish. Drink till 2024.
Made up of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Shiraz, 14% Petit Verdot and 9% Malbec. Aged for 12 months in 50% new French oak. — 8 years ago

Such an enticing and exciting nose. Very drinkable, but noticeably better after letting it air. Little more sour than I generally prefer, but I think a lot of people would enjoy this one — 9 years ago

Promising. Nose beginning to open, palate and finish still a bit backward. Hard to gauge where flavor profile is headed but this showed much more terroir character than varietal flavors. Would be wonderful to revisit in 3-5 years. — 12 years ago
