Margaret River, South West Australia, Western Australia, Australia
Enticing mature Cabernet smell of Plum Mocha and black currant - Barb said dusty chest of drawers. and a delicious palate. Excellent Margaret River Cabernet particularly for Woodlands’ 2nd string Cuvée. From a good vintage in 2010 with many years to go. Only 2 bottles left from an original dozen. Had another bottle 60 weeks later on 16th June 2023. Previous notes apply. This a proper Cabernet! I don’t often detect black olive as a Cabernet descriptor but I see it in this tasting. One left - I will have in 2 plus years time.

Apr 18th, 2022The “Margaret” blend from Woodlands is their 2nd Cabernet blend with the “Family Member” Series being their premium Cuvée. A Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec blend. Herbal notes with black currant and cedar. Great structure particularly for a 2nd wine. Good balance with some sweetness and persistence. Probably another 6 to 8 years in this.
