"(2020) Cabernet Sauvignon with 12% Merlot. Huge depth of colour, bright fruit aromas - blackcurrant and cigar box. Smooth, svelte, beautifully pure and dark flavours. Tangy fruit skins, bold, blackcurrant and ripe but has structure too with creamy tannins and pure acidity. Quite classy."
yr. 2014 Tom Cannavan:
90 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Villa Maria Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - Merlot" from the vintage 2014 on 01.01.2018 with 90 of 100 points.
"(2018) Sourced from the prime Gimblett Gravels terroir, this deep purple-black wine has a certain inkiness to the aromas, dry, spicy, a touch of graphite to black fruits. In the mouth the oak is a little more prominent, a touch of charriness of quality French oak, a firm strip of liquorice tannin and acidity, quite linear and structured, finishing with some of the black cassis fruit and spice coming through. Just a touch lean perhaps."

89 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Villa Maria Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - Merlot" from the vintage 1998 on 01.01.2003 with 89 of 100 points.
"(2003) Ripeness and sweet, minty depth are evident on the nose. Lots of black fruit, sweet plums and bittersweet chocolate. The palate is massively dry, concentrated and gripped by tannin, but a raft of dark, damsony fruit emerges. A powerhouse, but fine."
