"Really good even at the three year mark, the 2019 Soos Creek ‘Ciel du Cheval’ Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterclass by winemaker David Larsen. He has opted to blend in 20% Cabernet Franc, as the florals really pop instantly in the glass, with black tea, boysenberry coulis and garrigue notes. The palate delivers plenty of mouth-watering acidity, with refined tannins that hold in place a core of medium to full-bodied dark fruits, with coffee grounds and herbal undertones. Drink 2022-2037." Owen Bargreen, 93 Pts.

Drink 2022-2032." Owen Bargreen, 92 Pts.

The vintage is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from the Ciel du Cheval, Elephant Mt., and Klipsun vineyards. It has the usual blend of earthy, herbaceous, and berry fruit flavors, with more emphasis on the earthiness this vintage. The slightly higher acid gives it additional structure making it “tight” at this stage. It will benefit from extra aeration and will age well for 20+ years.

"The really good 2019 Soos Creek ‘Soleil’ red wine mainly Cabernet Sauvignon (57%) with smaller portions Merlot and Cabernet Franc blended in. Very soft on the mouth, this revels in its ripe red currant, black cherry, dried sage and cigar ash flavors. Enjoy this outstanding new red blend over the next ten to fifteen years. Drink 2022-2035." Owen Bargreen, 92 Pts.
