A classic Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon, complex yet approachable, with deep primary fruit flavours and velvety soft tannins.

Margaret River's climate has plenty in common with Bordeaux, so it's no surprise that the Cabernet Sauvignons from here share a few traits. You could call it Bordeaux's spiritual cousin - just with a bit more purity of fruit and a touch less austerity in youth. This one kicks off with blackcurrant and a hint of fresh bay leaf, a classic Margaret River hallmark. Beneath the ripe fruit, there's a savoury edge of cedar and a whisper of dark chocolate, with ten months in French oak adding subtle spice and structure. Soft, velvety tannins linger long after the last sip - so this is serious refinement for a modest outlay.
