Coldstream Hills Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

This pristine, finely crafted cool region cabernet reveals layers of sweet fruit and oak. Its lightly herbal and lightly confectionary aromas of cassis, plums and raspberries are supported by fine-grained vanilla oak, while its smooth and supple palate marries its elegance with a surprising assertive structure of firm, fine tannins. Fractionally too herbal for a higher score.

Winery

Coldstream Hills
A world class cool climate producer, Coldstream Hills was founded by wine writer James Halliday, who retains an association with this brand that now fits so neatly into Treasury Wine Estates' extensive folio. By any measure it is now a celebrated brand and one of true international standard, releasing wines of seamless balance and harmony. Now having reached its 30th anniversary, it's perhaps time it was given the credit it's due. Winemaker Andrew Fleming now has a green light to explore individual sites, as witnessed by the steadily increasing number of single vineyard wines under this label. Coldstream Hills has the luxury of only releasing Reserve level and single site wines when quality commands it, so is today one of the most dependable makers of Yarra Valley wine with a distinctive smooth, creamy and generously flavoured house style.
