2004 Giant Steps 'Harry's Monster' Cabernet Merlot

95 points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review
Medium full red, slight purple. Some primary fruit on nose. Mulberry raspberry and blueberry suggestions. Soft mellowing fruit, lovely semi-devel flavours, and plenty of powdery tannin to bring up the rear. Seriously nice, semi-aged cabernet. Mild, elegant, smooth, balanced, medium to full bodied. Should go on for years. This has deliciousness!

Rich and (by Yarra Valley standards) opulent; the skilful blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot and cabernet franc provides an array of black fruits without the slightest hint of green; good tannins and oak, not at all monstrous.
