Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2017, Robert Parker, Oct 2005
One of Australia’s most traditional winemakers, Colin Kay fashions old style, high quality, distinctive Australian reds. The spicy, earthy, tobacco, cherry, and currant-scented 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon is borderline rustic, but spicy, big, chewy, and attractive. It is by no means from the refined school of winemaking, but it possesses so much personality and soul, it is hard not to give it a high rating. With plenty of power and tannin, it will be a flavorful, mouth-filling Cabernet to enjoy over the next 10-12 years. Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283
