1999 Wynns John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon
The Wine Front Campbell Mattinson
Posted on 01 January 2005.
The oak on this 1999 John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon has been taken up beautifully here – much better, indeed, than the 1998 release did – though it’s possible that at barrel selection time the more restrained, classical cabernet parcels were pushed forward, which is a step entirely in the right direction.
This will be a classic wine in ten years time. It’s fruity, sure, but more so firm and tight and tannic, with excellent fruit momentum and thrilling acidity. It presents as a chunky wine of nonetheless finesse. It presents as a wine with an eye to long term quality, rather than to short-term market trends.
