While it is full of archetypal flavours of Margaret River cabernet, it’s also as much about Deep Woods Estate, too. Quite distinctive. Highly floral with violets and a touch of raspberry leaf before a cascade of mulberries, cassis and blackberries hits, and all spiced up with choc-mint and cedary, sweet oak. Fuller-bodied but composed and detailed with well-defined, beautifully shaped tannins plus fine acidity ensuring this lingers long. Stylish and delicious now yet built for the long haul.
BARRY WEINMAN, SEPTEMBER 2024, 97 POINTS.
Wow, wow, wow. This is so impressive. The power, intensity, structure and complexity are turned up to 10, yet this is still only medium bodied and offers immediate drinking pleasure. Brilliant winemaking, the integrated, highly polished oak is a highlight. This is more blackcurrant and spice rather than blue fruits and the tremendous length and the mouthfeel is a rare pleasure. Despite all the power, this is elegance personified. A point of differentiation between this and many of the other great Margaret River cabernets is that this uses Yallingup fruit of the estate vineyard right out the front of the winery, as opposed to Wilyabrup fruit.
ERIN LARKIN, ROBERT PARKER WINE ADVOCATE, NOVEMBER 2024, 96 POINTS.
The 2022 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a tremendous wine. The 2022 season was warm, early and dry, and the wines have been excellent thus far. Here, the warmth of the year shines through in the muscular tannin structure and ripe, powerful fruit. This has a profusion of tannin on board, which certifies its future in the cellar, but the tannin is matched in volume by fleshy fruit characters, key to its overall balance. History has shown that, generally, I prefer the even vintages of this Reserve Cabernet, and this year is no different. This is a super wine, one of the best.
