$72.00 inc. GST
‘Margaret’ is a blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 10% Malbec. Bright crimson in colour, the nose is extremely lush and aromatic, displaying a range of red and dark berry fruits combining with toasty French oak notes. The palate is exuberant, dense and concentrated– featuring ripe red and dark berry fruits, succulent middle palate, and plush tannin. A powerhouse of density and flavour, especially considering it’s 13.5% alcohol.

A classy and subtle blend of currants, blackberries, black chocolate and hints of hazelnut throughout. Medium to full body. Firm and polished tannins. Fresh acidity. Some ash and cedar undertones to this. 80% cabernet sauvignon, 10% merlot and 10% malbec. Drinkable, but better in five or six years. Screw cap.

Rated 96/100 Huon Hooke
“Deepish red colour with a glint of purple. The bouquet is superbly fragrant with a rose petal, subtle violet and red and dark fruit fragrance, edged with exotic spices. Very intense flavour, full-bodied, with a sweet fruit core, firm tannins and great elegance, its wonderful spectrum of flavour lasting very long on the palate. There’s a lot of detail here. A majestic cabernet blend, with a glorious future. (Grown on the original Woodlands Vineyard on Caves Road, planted 1973) 17 MAR 2020 Drink: 2020–2040”
