Ray Jordan’s review

This comes from a 1974 planting of Houghton clone vines and spent 18 months in French oak, about 40% of which was new. This is a cracking good cabernet sauvignon, capturing everything you expect from the variety. The nose reveals blackcurrant, black olive and a dollop of dark chocolate. The palate is firm with terrific structure, defined by fine tannins, integrated oak and, above all, intense, concentrated fruit.
