Tasting note
A Malbec-dominant blend supported by Cabernet Sauvignon for structure and Petit Verdot for lift and spice, this wine opens with expressive aromas of black cherry compote, violets and coastal bushland. The palate is plush and vibrant, layered with mulberries, sweet spice and savoury hints of liquorice and mocha.
Viticulture
Sourced from Hazel’s Vineyard - our southernmost estate site - and fruit from our trusted grower at Celestial Bay, this blend brings together two distinct expressions of Margaret River.
Vinification
Whole berry fermentation in concrete fermenters was employed to preserve the aromatics and enhance perfume. Gentle extraction techniques were used, with each batch spending 2 to 3 weeks on skins. Post fermentation, the wine was pressed to 20% new French oak barriques. After 14 months of maturation, individual parcels were blended and bottled in Spring 2023.
