About this Wine

Fruit for the Chenin Blanc comes from three organically farmed estate blocks on the Voyager Estate property. Voyager has some of the oldest Chenin Blanc in Margaret River, with some of the vines planted as far back as 1978. The soils are mostly gravelly loams with stony clay subsoils, providing excellent drainage and good moisture-holding capacity. Yields are kept low, and the resulting fruit has coastal expression and exceptional balance.

Voyager’s Chenin thrived in the sunny and warm conditions of 2024. The fruit was picked at full ripeness while maintaining a crisp, fresh line of acidity. It’s an intensely flavoured, beautifully pitched expression of Margaret River Chenin. Made in the classic Voyager mould, the organically grown fruit was picked by hand and pressed to tank immediately to preserve as much brightness and primary profile as possible. After settling, a small portion was sent to older French puncheons for fermentation and maturation, adding texture and weight to the final wine. The parcels were blended and bottled in June 2024 following a short maturation. This is fresh as a daisy, full of bright, pretty blossom and yellow apple, Meyer lemon and some talcy, stony depth. The texture is spot-on with great phenolic chew, puckering pinch and fleshy weight leading to a honey-touched finish. For the money, just magic.

Margaret River Wine

In the southwest of Western Australia, the Margaret River wine region is unique in that it is the most maritime-influenced region in all of Australia. The cool Indian ocean breezes come in through the summer to keep the temperatures around the vines steady resulting in an unusually even accumulation of warmth in the growing season. It is also quite dry as interestingly less than 20% of the annual rainfall occurs as the grapes are growing. The region’s climatic factors have been compared to what Bordeaux would be like in a dry season. While the region’s total production is relatively small (3% of Australia’s total wine production), it is responsible for 20% of our premium wine market.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz as well as Bordeaux blends are all very popular red wine options in the region.

For whites, refreshing blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon as well as complex, age worthy Chardonnays are the specialties.
