4.5 stars
"Van Der Heyden claims to be the only winery in the world to make a late harvest Cabernet, a very risky undertaking considering the late ripening fruit. This wine shows perfect age effects, light oxidation that adds complexity, a huge chocolatey nose with hints of beautiful dark sweet fruit. Surprisingly not cloyingly sweet in the palate, but with clean acidity and firm tannins. The almost endless finish in the mouth leaves a toasted apple/butter flavor like tarte tatin, bready and sweet. Frightingly expensive but lovely to taste."
