The Details

Tasting Note Crimson in colour. The nose is classic Cabernet Sauvignon from Margaret River. Layers of intensely flavoured ripe forest berries infused with tobacco leaf, blackcurrant and sea spray with a hint of brooding cedar oak. The medium bodied palate offers bright berry flavours and spicy mid-palate freshness. A fine expression of varietal definition from a cool vintage that yields soft luscious tannins and a long fresh finish.
Best Enjoyed With Enjoy with Angus beef fillet topped with garlic poached marron (what the locals refer to as steak and lake), or char-grilled kale with brown rice and onions.
Treatment The grapes for this wine are grown across a small selection of sites in Margaret River’s flagship Wilyabrup sub-region. With close proximity to the Indian Ocean, the maritime influence moderates daytime temperatures and supports slower ripening. Soil types range from sandy to laterite gravel, both of which naturally restrict vine vigour and yields. A diversity of aspects and soil profiles across these vineyard sites allows for selective blending of parcels, contributing to the depth, balance and complexity of the final wine.
