Decanter Magazine: 95 Points

Tasted blind. Very pale in colour. A little more depth of fruit than some, but still quite introspective. Rounded, there's some weight and glycerol. Plenty of rooibos tea, and rhubarb on the palate. Long, slender. A very elegant wine, this is brave winemaking.

Vinous: 91 Points

The 2018 Cinsault Ramnasgras is fully destemmed and fermented in concrete, then aged in foudres. It has a tertiary bouquet of tightly wound red fruit, a patina of concrete seeping into the aromatic profile. The palate is mediumbodied with a supple opening of crushed strawberry, red cherries and hints of fennel, nicely defined if needing just a little more intensity. The palate is mediumbodied with a tertiary opening. This Cinsault is quite peppery in style, leaving the mouth tingling with Szechuan pepper notes long after it has departed. Very fine. -- Neal Martin
