Woodlands Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
A very herbaceous and capsicum-like presence of cassis, blackberries, snow peas and sweet, smoky mocha-like oak is supported by a sappy and rather metallic backbone and finished with a green acidity. Like so many Margaret River cabernets from this vintage, it lacks sufficient presence of genuinely ripe fruit.

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.
