Seville Estate Old Vine Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2003
Meaty, greenish and rather flat, lacking genuine brightness of fruit, with minty, earthy aromas supported by assertive chocolate/mocha oak. Framed by firm, but sappy tannins, its meaty expression of rather simple and confection-like red and black berries and mocha/vanilla oak is rather overwhelmed by the extract and greenness.

Seville Estate
Seville Estate crafts some of the more elegant, complex and alluring Yarra Valley table wines, sourced from the mature vineyard initially planted in 1972 by Dr Peter McMahon as well as fruit from the neighbouring site. The wines are very restrained but reveal deep, pristine flavours and the kind of natural acid balance that only cool sites can really develop. Now under new ownership, but with the retained winemaking skills and commitment of Dylan McMahon, the founder's grandson, Seville Estate appears set to flourish.
