Margaret River

Shiraz

A block that consistently delivers an outstanding shiraz. It's definitely more in the medium-bodied stylish syrah vein than classically big Aussie shiraz with its bright red fruits and lifted perfumed aromatics. Has a thoroughly beautiful mouthfeel with fine bony tannins and slick oak balancing the fruit intensity. I do like this style of wine.

Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon

Another excellent wine from this sleeper vintage in which the wines have generally taken a little time to shake themselves out of their slumber. Plenty of dark chocolate and blackcurrant fruit starting to emerge with the support of chalky fine tannins and sensitively applied oak. One of the best I have seen under this label.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A bolder and slightly older style chardonnay with a modern twist producing its linear refined structure. Loads of white peach and nectarine with a trace of quince paste complexity and richness. The palate is bright and almost crystalline with its crunchy minerality a feature. A dry savoury struck match adds to the finish.
