Trent Mayers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This South African red blend delivers superb value for under $15. It has Syrah that gives it character, Mourve`dre for depth, and Viognier that lifts the aromas. You'll find plenty happening in your glass with intense dark plum compote, black and white pepper, smoked meat, clove, and vanilla. The smooth tannins and full body make it a good pairing for your mushroom risotto with copious amounts of parmesan or pretty much any beef dish, especially braised beef. I'd drink it now to enjoy the fruit.

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Aromas of plum and blackberries, along with floral notes, smoke, and spice. Full bodied, with bright, mouthwatering acidity, and some medium tannins, lots of dark berry flavours and more floral and spicy notes on the finish. Enjoy with grilled sausages or marinated kebabs.
