Perfect Cabernet. Entry level 2008 is drinking as well as anything in the land. Peerless at the price

May 26th, 2015Much better than the 2008 for mine. The warmer (some say perfect) vintage evident. I'm starting to think I prefer these entry level releases than the Special Reserve range. 95

Brilliant. Brilliant. Brilliant. I don't care what anybody says for 27 bucks this is Australia's best valued wine. I admire Huntington's philosophy regarding the 5 year moratorium they impose on their releases. I tried this alongside a 2010 and a 2012 and it's obvious to see why they wait the five years. As a young wine the Cab Savs are huge and overwhelmingly tannic to the point of overkill. However, with 6 years of age this wine is magnificent: the perfect storm. It has harmonious balance, defined structure and yet the tannins are as soft as butter. It also has enough length to reach Sydney from Mudgee. The whole experience is superbly rounded off with a slightly creamy finish that will make you believe in Santa. Red Magic.

Dec 28th, 2014I love this producer and would put them in my top three estates in the country. This is their entry level Cabernet and god its good, so good! This for $27 or there about's is of the charts! It's straight Cabernet that is not released until 5 years after vintage. It just tastes so good!!! 8 years old and probably another 5 years left in the tank so to speak. I would almost put this wine/producer as my desert island wine!!! 96/100
