Woodlands Cabernet Sauvignon 2003
A classical Margaret River cabernet whose deep, concentrated perfume of cassis, dark cherries, plums and cedar/chocolate oak reveals undertones of mint and bay leaf. Spotlessly clean, its long and piercingly flavoured palate of pristine dark cherry/plum fruit is tightly supported by firm, fine tannins, building in its intensity towards its finely balanced and lingering finish

Woodlands
Established in 1973, Woodlands is still enjoying a stunning renaissance that shows no signs of slackening. It has developed its own house style - almost a prerequisite for greatness in wine - of deeply perfumed, pristine fruit integrated with fresh, fine-grained oak and underpinned by a classically fine, chalky backbone, often revealing the kind of dusty, dried herb qualities more often seen in Bordeaux than Australian cabernet. There's again an impressively even consistency and elegance about the current releases, as well as Woodlands' typical cellaring potential. Again, it's hard to pick highlights out of a collection of highlights.
