Description: | 95 pts Tim Atkin MW 2022 "Very dry with very small berries" is how Gottfried Mocke sums up the 2020 vintage in Stellenbosch. Sourced from four vineyards in Faure and on the Helderberg, this is powerful, structured and intense, with lots of body and backbone. Partnering Cabernet Sauvignon with 4% Cabernet Franc, it's bold and inky, with classic black cherry and blackcurrant fruit and vanilla-scented 65% new wood. Natural acidity freshens the finish. 2024-32 4 ½ Stars 2023 Platter's South African Wine Guide Richer than sibling & with broader shoulders (14.9% alc), brooding 20 (93 pts) displays traditional power with precision, ripe black fruit with leafy freshness from dab cab franc. |
