Woodlands Russell Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Cabernet Sauvignon | Margaret River, Western Australia, Australia

Woodlands Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from the original vines from the vinyards south facing slope. Each year the wine is named after a family member or family friend. For 2018 Woodlands named their Cabernet “Russell” after Russell Cook. Famous not just for his winemaking but also for his Ironman pedigree, Russell has been a tireless supporter and an enormous help for the family for over 20 years.

The colour is bright crimson, deep rose red. The nose is very expressive with notes of mulberry, brambly red berry fruits, and toasty vanilla French oak.

The palate is supple and rich, with a seamless carry between red berry fruits, oak, and mineral tannin. The finish is cool, a nice contrast to the richness of the palate.

On the first night the wine was a little closed and subdued, and on the second night hints of aniseed and black fruits came to the forefront of the palate. By the third night, the wine looked glorious- revealing an underlying slate like texture- very mineral and very fine. With air this wine is much more complex, and shows less of the primary fruit flavours.

This wine is a powerhouse, and a great standard bearer for the 2018 vintage. It’s dense without being sweet, and complex while remaining fresh. Best enjoyed from 2025 to 2030.
