The warmer climate shows through very clearly with velvety mouthfeel, plum and blackcurrant fruit, and a brocade for the velvet. Small wonder that it quickly won two gold medals. 13.5% alc Drink: 2032 Closure: Screwcap" - James Halliday, Top 100 Wines 2018.

WINEMAKING NOTES: Grapes from the northern regions of Margaret River: Wilyabrup, Carbunup and Cowaramup, were harvested at ideal flavour and tannin ripeness, fermented then matured for twelve to fifteen months in French oak from a variety of coopers. An excellent growing season has delivered well-balanced wines that will develop gracefully in bottle. Enjoy now to 2028. TASTING NOTE: A full-flavoured yet finely structured Cabernet of great appeal: black berries, dried leaves and fine gravelly tannin, reflect an outstanding year.
