2026 Dormilona Aka

The 2026 Dormilona Aka is a vibrant Margaret River chilled red blend of Tempranillo, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon from the Yungarra Vineyard. It shows red cherry, redcurrant and raspberry alongside red apple, red plum, fresh herbs and gentle spice. Made with a light-touch approach, it focuses on bright fruit, freshness and easy drinkability rather than heavy structure.

On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied and juicy, with refreshing acidity, soft tannins and layers of crunchy red fruit. Cherry, raspberry and redcurrant are joined by subtle herbaceous notes and a gentle savoury edge, while the lively texture keeps the wine energetic and refreshing. A lightly salty character carries through the palate, leading to a clean, dry and highly drinkable finish.

Ben’s Recommendation: 
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for drinkers looking for a fresh, low-intervention-style Australian red that is made for relaxed drinking. Serve lightly chilled for maximum freshness and enjoy young while the vibrant fruit is at its best. Best enjoyed over the next 2–4 years. Pair with wood-fired pizza, charcuterie, grilled lamb skewers, pork and fennel sausages, antipasti, or barbecue dishes with fresh herbs and smoky flavours.
