TASTING NOTE: A dense, intense, spicy shiraz here from Swartland, with abundantly ripe black fruit, marked but not overly exaggerated wood, lots of black pepper and warm, lingering finish. A pretty impressive wine for smoked BBQed meats all in all. Tasted February 2012. Score: 90 (John Szabo, MS, winealign.com, March 6, 2012)

Sweet-fruited, ripe, full-flavoured, full throttle ...2009 has full everything, really -- it's big, rich, oaky, assertive wine, with its own sort of balance and successful within its chosen style. Score - 4 Stars (out of 5). (Tim James, Platter's South African Wine Guide, 2012)
