HOUGHTON CW Ferguson Cabernet Malbec 2016
Cabernet Malbec Great Southern
Estimate Per Bottle: 45-50

DELICIOUS - JH97 - C.W. Ferguson was winemaker at Houghton from 1863-1911, and employed George Mann, father of Jack Mann, the latter legendary for his long tenure at Houghton. This is a delicious wine, the firm power of the cabernet augmented by the rich compote of plum ex the malbec. It's a style (and quality) Jack Mann would have approved of.  Two Gold Medals

HOUGHTON Gladstones Cabernet Sauvignon 2003
Cabernet Sauvignon Margaret River

FIRST CLASS - JH96 - Good colour; an imposing and powerful wine which nonetheless has first class balance and great length, the tannins supporting cassis-accented fruit. Nine Trophies

HOUGHTON Gladstones Cabernet Sauvignon 2004
Cabernet Sauvignon Margaret River
Estimate Per Bottle: 90-100

POWERHOUSE - JH96 -  A veritable powerhouse, as the wine usually is. This is deadly serious cabernet sauvignon, like a knight in full-body armour. Inside there is a wealth of blackcurrant/ blackberry fruit, and tannins as a second line of defence. When and how to attack is the question.  Two Trophies and Four Gold Medals
