Tasting Notes - Green Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2000

Our favourite small producer from Margaret River. The 2000 cab is the first of the Keith Mugford productions. Slightly stewed nose shows some power. Palate is a tough one to call; primary fruit sees a little subdued, perhaps a bit wound up (at this stage) in what appears to be a very classy structure. Good tannins run right throught the palate, along with some noticeable oak. A touch varnishy - a little volatie? Nevertheless an ok wine.
