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

Constantia Producer Steenberg Vineyards is the oldest farm in the Constantia Valley and a premium wine producer.
H.M.S. Echo is a blend of 62% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc and 14% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The aromas of peppermint and chocolate burst out of the glass.
This is a delicious, voluptuous, well balanced wine that is a joy to drink. The finish lasts forever.
It paired very well with char-grilled T-bone steak as well as with char-grilled ostrich steak. On the other hand I could very happily drink it paired with itself only.
