Since its debut vintage, Christian Canute's Cabernet Sauvignon has been one of Australia's finest. His 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Boundaries (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) is reminiscent of Colgin Cabernet from California. Its extraordinary pure bouquet of blueberry, crème de cassis, graphite, smoke, mint, and high quality toasty oak is accompanied by great fruit, stature, and richness in the mouth as well as a long, full-bodied finish that lasts for 45+ seconds. Although still young and precocious, this beauty should evolve for 10-15 years.

"The 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon 'Boundaries' spent 30 months in oak, 30% new American and 70% used French. Purple-colored, it presents a complex bouquet of cedar, leather, scorched earth, smoke, olives, cassis, and black currants. Made in a racy, sleek style, this Cabernet seems to dance across the palate into a pure, long finish. It has some silky tannins which will allow the wine to evolve for 2-3 years. Drink it through 2020."
