| Woodlands 5 Star Winery James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion ‘09 2005 ‘Colin’ Cabernet Sauvignon A classic example of cabernet with leafy notes sitting gracefully on top of cassis and a little black olive complexity; rich yet fine on the palate, with plenty of fine-grained tannins; oak dominates now, but will offer real pleasure with time. 96 pts 2006 Margaret Subdued bouquet; red fruits; a little spice; a fine and focussed finish. Cabernet Sauvignon/ Merlot/ Malbec. 91 pts 2007 Chardonnay Bright and crisp grapefruit aromas, with just a little touch of oak evident; fresh, vibrant and tightly wound with good concentration; should age gracefully. 92 pts James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion ‘09 2008 Cabernet Franc Merlot The wine is a blend of 45% Cab Franc, 43% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Sauvignon matured in a combination of new, one year old and two year old French oak for 8 months. The wine is crimson in colour. The nose shows a rich array of mulberry, red berry fruits and strawberry patch. Layers of raspberry and blackcurrant provide a rich and ripe middle palate, with silky tannins leading to a rich and vibrant finish. 2007 Chardonnay 2007 ‘Chloe’ Chardonnay 2008 Cabernet Merlot (June/July) 2008 Cabernet Franc Merlot 2006 ‘Margaret’ Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon/ Merlot/ Malbec 2005 ‘Colin’ Cabernet Sauvignon (very limited) |
