Hartenberg "The Mackenzie" 2016 [TA 94]

Tim Atkin MW 94 points.

In honour of the Mackenzie family that headed the development

of the new era at the Estate.

Their vision remains simple: To do whatever it takes to produce

wines of outstanding quality by anybody's standards.

72% Cabernet Sauvignon

19% Merlot

7% Petit Verdot

2% Malbec

TASTING NOTES:

Cedary oak, classic cigar box and wood spice aromatics on

the bouquet. The palate reveals dark fruits, plums,

chocolate and cassis. Succulent, plush, yet elegant mouth-

feel with fine, dry, and lingering tannins. Decanting of the

wine is recommended if consumed prior to December 2021.
