Tahbilk 1992 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Aug 04

 A savoury bouquet of forest floor, mushroom, milk chocolate, coffee, cedar and menthol with obvious secondary aged characters staring to develop; all-in-all the complexity was amazing and a new scent was found almost every time the glass was swirled.

Fine, chewy tannins have softened but are still noticeable and will ensure this wine will last more many years to come. Acid is still fresh and the fruit, although only medium is up to the task. Length is good and persistence is fantastic. Rated as Excellent, they don’t get much better than this one.
