James Halliday – "There's such a distinct Voyager Estate character to this wine, largely because the fruit comes off the estate vineyard. It's heady with tobacco leaf, nori, dried herbs, mulberries and cassis. It's savoury and supple and the tannins feel mellow and shapely, there's depth, complexity and length. It's captivating now but will reward the patient more so. "- Jane Faulkner
About This Wine
Margaret River's Voyager Estate has firmly established itself as one of Australia's leading exponents of Cabernet Sauvignon. Made from hand harvested parcels of fruit from Voyager Estate's best vineyard blocks, this is always an expressive Cabernet with wonderful poise and complexity.
This exceptional 2019 Voyager Estate Cabernet Sauvignon again comes from Voyager's finest, organically farmed vineyards. Opening with lifted aromas of sweet black fruit, chocolate, violet, earthy and a touch of cedar. The palate is typically vibrant and approachable with plenty of red fruits, violets and savouriness, with fine tannins leading to a long, balanced finish. Another classic Voyager Cabernet that will draw plenty of admirers.

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.
