Sprucewood Shores 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve
There are some wines that you rate based on their future potential and not on their drink now status - this Sprucewood Reserve Cabernet is one of those wines. This is from the big 2007 vintage where riper than usual fruit was the norm. 19 months in a mix of French and Hungarian wood have given this wine quite a hefty mouthfeel but there's balance in this bottle and nice texture across the tongue. Unfortunately, the fruit hasn`t fully integrated with the wood but it will in the coming years, lie this one down for a year or two then bring it out for company around the BBQ. I would suggest decanting, that should help to get that wood and dark fruit grit melded together nicely. Price: $24.95 - Rating: **** 1/2
