Score 93/100 · Drink 2023-2033, Neal Martin, Sep 2022
The 2021 Cuvée Cinema comes from Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge and includes 60% whole cluster with 25% new oak. Red cherry and raspberry fruit tinged with tomato vines scents, this feels very open and Burgundian. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tension and filigree tannins, harmonious and poised with the stems lending a judicious pepperiness on the finish. Excellent.

Score 17/20 · Drink 2024-2030, Jancis Robinson MW, Jun 2022
A 1.6-ha site on a 20-year contract. Clones 115 and 667. 60% whole bunch. Next to Clay Shales vineyard, at 320 m. High-density planting: 11,000 vines on 1.6 ha. Dense and layered nose. Broad and perfumed with more than a hint of violets. Lots of chewiness on the end. Dry finish and still quite reticent but very promising. (JR)
