Margaret River

Chardonnay

This is such a good chardonnay, displaying wonderful fruit and very astute winemaking to get the best of it. All hand-picked and whole-bunch pressed, and then barrel fermented with plenty of time on lees to build texture, richness and flavour intensity. Beautiful aromatics of lemon meringue, crème brûlée and light citrus notes. The palate reveals deeper concentration within a quite...

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

A delightful example of this Margaret River style. Fresh and fruity with a racy acidity sustaining life through the tropical fruit-laden palate. A squeeze of lemon on the finish and there you have it – a wine ready to go.

Western Australia

Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

Designed as a fresh and crunchy immediate drinking wine. The vintage vibrance is evident from the outset with a lively passionfruit and gentle squeeze lemon adding a zippy sensation. The palate is crisp and pure with a lifted pristine minerally finish. Excellent.

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

Captures the perfect conditions of the ‘23 harvest. Crunchy and vibrant gooseberry and citrus merge to create a wine that screams for current drinking. It's juicy and lively with a fresh zingy finish. A faint flinty edge completes a very good wine.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

One of the most engaging and complex chardonnays yet from Brown Hill. Despite the hot, dry season, early picking in the south delivered brightness, elegance and refinement. Hand-picked and whole-bunch pressed, then fermented with a mix of wild and inoculated yeasts. No malolactic, but regular stirring adds texture. Bright natural acidity drives a fine, linear palate with ripe stone fruit,...

Margaret River

White Blend

A classic Margaret River blend with added complexity from 10% French oak wild yeast fermentation. The nose shows tropical fruit, light lemon and fresh-cut grass. The palate is zingy and crisp, with passionfruit and a neat lime lift. Perfect for current drinking.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

The chardonnays from Brown Hill have consistently improved over the years, and this is another excellent example from this slightly warmer year that produced fruit of generosity but still a degree of elegance. Citrus floral notes open with a slight lemon meringue note and then a palate which is crisp and pure with dominant stone fruit and cut lime characters....

Margaret River

Chardonnay

One of the best chardonnays yet from Brown Hill. Shows more restraint and control than some previous wines, with this cooler vintage obviously contributing. Aromas of melon and light cereal with zippy lime and pear edging in. The palate releases excellent flavour intensity with more of the nectarine stone fruit characteristics evident. There's a crunchy minerality to finish.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A pretty and perfumed chardonnay of good flavour intensity and precision. Aromas of fig and melon with a racy lemon zest. The palate reveals the distinctive varietal cut lime and tart melon characters with some understated creamy oak. A slightly saline minerality completes the wine.

Margaret River

White Blend

This is a punchy white blend just loaded with exuberant fruit characters from the start. Lots of tropical, gooseberry, citrusy characters with a little balancing fresh cut hay nuance. Spicy, crunchy palate extends easily through to a long finish with those tropical fruits in abundance but held with that fine tight acidity giving it focus and depth.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Fragrant aromas of white peach, lemon pith, and brioche. The palate is racy, with melon, citrus, and a faint grapefruit edge, supported by a touch of creaminess.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A light-bodied, crisp, almost Chablis-style chardonnay where the lively varietal aromatics of pear and cut lime, with a little grapefruit, emerge. On the palate, there are more riches of stone fruit and the creaminess that adds textural feel. A little flick of oak introduces subtle complexity, but it retains its keen edginess through to a long finish. Refreshing and pure.

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

Here’s a punchy sauvignon blanc that delivers plenty. On the nose, you get a real hit of apple and tropical fruits, with, of course, a fairly typical citrusy character. Then the palate has surprising texture but retains a crunchiness thanks to that lively acid and slight chalkiness. Racy, long and an excellent current-drinking wine.

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

Pretty bold fruit for this savvy. The nose shows cut pear, lemon, and passionfruit. The palate is clean, dry, and flavoursome with a lingering crisp finish. Neatly crafted with good fruit.

Great Southern

Chardonnay

A quite delicate and precise wine sourced from the Great Southern. Opens with stone fruit and a light lemon and orange blossom mix on the nose. The palate picks up the stone fruit influence, before lifted notes of lemon curd and light quince emerge. Nicely balanced.

Great Southern

Chardonnay

A Great Southern chardonnay of intensity, delicacy and persistence all wrapped into a controlled linear package. Aromas have a slightly toasty, roasted cashew and nectarine character. Into the palate flavours of lemon tart and a little flint emerge showing the balance of oak and fruit. Fine linear finish.

Great Southern

Riesling

A fine and quite delicate riesling from the Great Southern. The aromas display some rather nice florals with a light citrus minerality and fine slaty nuance. The palate is precise with a degree of tension producing a lancing crisp acidity. Shows the virtues of this vintage

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A precise, neatly crafted chardonnay with a linear structure. Aromas of lemon, grapefruit, and a trace of cumquat. The palate has lift and intensity, with flavour building into a long finish. Dry savoury notes complete a very tidy wine.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Here’s a wine that shows a degree of sophistication. It was wild-yeast fermented and then partially malolactic fermented, so it’s produced a level of complexity. The aromas show nutty cashew, stone fruit and slightly savoury characters. Then the palate reveals more, with its rich textural feel delivering a little crème brûlée, lemon meringue and quince paste character. A fine, minerally...

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

Plenty of punch and tropical passionfruit on the nose with this excellent savvy from this excellent season. A little barrel fermentation and further maturation have introduced a degree of textural complexity and mouthfeel that sets this apart from your normal run-of-the-mill savvy. Beautifully bright and energetic. A little drizzle of citrus, and it all hangs in there to produce a...

Margaret River

Chenin Blanc

Another brilliant example of the versatility of this variety. It's been cane cut to allow the bunches to dry and concentrate the sugars. It's thoroughly delicious with its floral, green apple and citrus on the nose and then the luscious mix of cumquat, lemon tart and a hint of pineapple. If you want just a little sweetness with a crisp...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Continues the generous style that has been part of the Cape Grace DNA. It's wild fermented and gets about 40% new oak which this season needed to strike the right balance. Nectarine and edgier cumquat emerge over aromas of quince paste and crème brulee on the nose. The palate is layered and textured with great depth of flavour that carries...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A slightly finer and more delicate chardonnay than previously, benefiting from this super vintage. But there is certainly no shortage of power driving through a long palate. Aromas of marzipan and roasted almond with a cereal, grapefruit and light white peach character. The palate is exquisitely crafted and shaped to a very long finish. Excellent.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Continuing the excellent line of chardonnays produced from this terrific producer in Margaret River. In this case, it was barrel fermented, and then it got 33% in new French oak. So, the oak influence is important and significant, and yet it doesn't overload, allowing the beautiful mix of butterscotch and peach characters, with their lifted florals to emerge. Has a...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

There's an immediate crunchy purity and vibrancy about this chardonnay. Certainly one of the best yet from Cape Grace. The aromas are dominated by a punchy peach, nectarine and slightly brioche combination. And then the palate, which is gently influenced by a third new French oak, reveals a complex minerality presented with elegance. A little butterscotch adds further richness, and...

Margaret River

Chenin Blanc

Super season for this aromatic fruity variety. A small portion was barrel fermented resulting in a slightly tighter palate at the moment but one that is ready to develop beautifully with age. The nose has a sort of red apply skin and punchy melon nuance. The palate is racy with a crunchy chalky acidity supporting that vibrant fruit expression.

Margaret River

Chenin Blanc

Cape Grace has been a champion of this variety for some time. This gets about 30% wild fermentation in oak, which certainly brings added complexity and interest. Has a crunchy apple and fresh pastry character on the nose with a palate that has depth and layered complexity finished with a fine lingering acidity. Great food wine, this.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This is a tiny production wine, but it's great to see Cape Grace putting their energies into producing something special. It was wild fermented into 50% new oak, and although there's been minimal intervention, it shows tremendous complexity. It has a minerally, gun-flinty edge to the grapefruit and slightly cashew-like characters. The texture is quite creamy, but there's a nice...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This is an immediately ready-to-drink chardonnay, displaying good fruit depth and expression and a well-crafted palate. Captures the citrus, grapefruity notes, a little bit of the lemongrass, and lemon curd complexity. There's a trace of stone fruit, nectarine dominated, and a minerally palate showing a nice oak and fruit integration. Drinking perfectly now.

Margaret River

Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

A quintessential Margaret River blend with its beautiful florals and melons on the nose and a palate that delivers with a lemony fruit character and a dusting of dried herbs. It's crisp, flavoursome and refreshing. And right on the money for this style.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This cooler vintage proved ideal for chardonnay. This captures that vintage to perfection. The aromas are lightly fragrant with high florals evident. There is a subtle saline character merging. The palate has a fine crunchy feel with a little pear, cut lime and brioche richness. Excellent use of oak supplies a subtle complexing influence. I like this less opulent direction.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A light and fragrant chardonnay, but one with an intriguing complexity that emerges almost immediately. Light lemon meringue with a little grapefruit and roasted almond break out on the nose. The palate is precise and fine with a delicacy that belies the intensity driving through to a sustained finish. Has a chalky acid and slightly savoury finish.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This is a wine that captures the precision and elegance of a vintage that produced wines combining delicacy with power. Whole bunch pressing and wild fermentation, followed by eight months in French oak barriques, have contributed to a complex and layered palate. On the nose, there are lively, slightly lemon-scented, minerally, lemon curd characters. The palate shows deep intensity, with...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

This is a generous, full, powerful chardonnay from this warm year. It was handpicked, whole bunch pressed, then wild fermented in oak before a further 10 months maturation. The nose shows those distinctive lemon meringue, stone fruit, and citrus notes, while the palate delivers more chalky lemon curd flavours. Striking. A perfect balance of oak and fruit.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Marks a significant step up for Cape Mentelle with this super new release chardonnay. The aromatic intensity is stunning with a lemon curd, brioche richness cut with a mealy grapefruit and lemon zest edge. The palate has a dry savoury edge which backs into the deep fruit richness. Slight struck match complements the palate brilliantly. A new era for Cape...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Makes a quantum leap on many levels. Subtle florals of lemon and grapefruit with a little mealy lightly roasted almond character. The palate delivers with restraint and control but there is a deep and penetrating core with a neat savoury element. Traces of seas shell and lemon rind with a delicate chalky limestone character.

Margaret River

Chardonnay

Sourced from some of the southernmost vineyards of Cape Mentelle and picked early to avoid the heat of 2024, this wine proves you shouldn't judge a vintage without knowing the details. It's an incredibly delicate and fine style, capturing powerful, concentrated intensity with refined delicacy. Minerally, lemony notes appear on the nose, while the palate builds slowly through the middle...

Margaret River

Chardonnay

A light and inviting fresh young chardonnay designed for immediate drinking. Light tropical and citrus notes on the nose move through to richer stone fruit characters. The palate is crisp and distinctly fruit-drive with a pleasing textural mouth feel.

Margaret River

Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

A terrific little value for money blend offering all you expect from this neat combination. Loads of floral notes with a lift of lemon and gooseberry with a trace of Granny Smith. The palate is light and bright with a sustained fine finish. Ready to drink.

Margaret River

Sauvignon Blanc

This is a completely engaging savvy that uses lees influence rather than oak to build complexity and interest in that palate. It's crunchy and zingy with a fine acidity elevating the finish. A little passionfruit and gooseberry burst from the bouncy palate. That textural feel and acidity should allow it to age rather well in the medium term.
