Description

Final blend 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. The malolactic fermentation went through naturally. The wine was aged for 7 months in 30% new French oak barrels.

Fine grained tannins frame the structure of this beautifully fruited Cabernet Merlot blend from their 50 year old vines. Tannins are what make great wine quality, and this wine has ample – with tannins sitting at the front of the mouth pulling the flavours of cabernet through, so energetic with the tension between the savoury and sweet nature of this wine. Delicious and satisfying.

About the region

Western Australia · Margaret River

Western Australia makes a small share of Australia's crush and an outsized share of its fine wine. Margaret River, cooled on two sides by ocean, is the best known: Cabernet Sauvignon of real structure, taut Chardonnay, and the crisp Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon blends the region made its name on. Inland and further south, the Great Southern subregions of Frankland River and Mount Barker add dry Riesling and peppery Shiraz.
