About this Wine

98pts Ray Jordan – RayJordanWine.com - TOP SCORE EVER FOR THIS WINE FOR THIS PUBLICATION ‘This was a good year in Margaret River, delivering fruit of tremendous intensity and good structure. In this case, it's been captured in this superb cabernet sauvignon that demonstrates the awesome power of the region, but with finesse, refinement, and a real polish on the finish. Black fruits, bay leaf, and graphite on the nose. A palate that shows almost a sweet fruit middle, but then the structure wraps around it and carries it forward with tremendous intensity. Totally seamless and integrated, with a sustained lingering finish. Cellar 20 years’

95pts Cassandra Charlick – Decanter Magazine UK - TOP SCORE EVER FOR THIS WINE FOR THIS PUBLICATION ‘Some wines have a distinct personality. This is the person who arrives at the party and stops the conversation. Concentrated, satinous nose with juicy semi-dried pepper berries, heady perfume, star anise, sumac and sweet red rose spice. Perfumed with cedary resin and oud luxury. Purple velvet fruit, mulberry, fennel flower. Sublime intensity and concentration on the palate – inky, bold and uber-plush, with pillowy velvet tannins over a firm core. Single vineyard in Wilyabrup, Houghton clone, 57% new French oak from Tronçais and Bertranges forests. Drink 2025-2040’ Tasted AUG 2025

Our finest cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon from the heart of Margaret River. The gravelly soils of the vineyard are flanked by the dominant native hardwood trees named Jarrah. Jarrah trees have become a favourable and exact biological indicator that the site is ideally matched to Cabernet Sauvignon.

The fruit is 100% Wilyabrup Cabernet Sauvignon, 35-year-old Houghton selection clones. From 2016 – 2020 the vineyard remains true to the cuvée. Destemmed, the berries are split just enough to let some juice out and start fermenting. Undergoing a cool, long ferment in stainless (peak of 25 degrees Celsius), the cap is managed as required. As the fermentation progresses the management evolves. Post ferment, the wine is left on the skins for a further two to three weeks. It is matured in 225-liter French oak barriques (Taransaud, Jupilles, Allier, and "just a smidgen of Bertrand," 55% to 60% new) for 14-18 months, depending on the season. 14%, sealed under Stelvin!

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.

Critic reviews

James Suckling – "Concentrated, refined aromas of blackcurrants, plum skin, bay leaves, cocoa and pencil shavings. The palate is full- bodied and layered with firm yet polished tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of dark cherries, mulberries, cedar, graphite and cloves. Powerful and composed with impressive length and no hard edges."
