Reynell 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon PlonkOz04

This was the best Hardy’s wine I have tasted for some time. The bouquet with subtle showing good fruit purity, it's sweet, ripe with cedar and tobacco oak influences. Chewy, dusty tannins provide a firm backbone and solid structure for this muscular-weight wine that has elegant and harmonious characters. On the palate, it is reasonably impressive with blackcurrant other dark fruit mint and olive. A pleasant, good quality wine of some class it has an attractive mouth feel which makes it approachable now but will improve tool 2009+. Rated as Highly Recommended with *** for value.
