The Margaret River wine region occupies the south western corner of Western Australia; about three hours drive south of Perth.
It enjoys a Western Maritime, or Mediterranean climate. Summers are warm and dry, winters cool and wet. The climate has often been compared to that of Bordeaux.
The Indian Ocean lies to our west, the Southern Ocean to the south. The oceans meet at Cape Leeuwin, near the small township of Augusta.
Here the Blackwood River, the largest in the South West, ends its journey, flowing into Flinders Bay. Humpback and Southern Right whales abound in the waters around the South West. They take refuge in Flinders Bay during their annual migration.
Vines were first planted in the Margaret River region in the 1960s. Cabernet Sauvignon, Semillon and Riesling were the main early plantings. Much of the Riesling, more suited to continental than maritime climates, has been replanted or grafted to other varieties.
A delightful aroma of dark cherries, plum and black currant, with a hint of the cigar box.
Our Shiraz is black with purple tinges. It displays aromas of white pepper, dark berries and spice, amplified by discreet use of toasty oak.
Our Merlot is full, rich & opulent. Deep, generous fruit wedded to smooth French oak gives an outstanding long smooth finish.
Fresh, vibrant & fruity with a delicious cherry aroma. Strawberry & raspberry dominates with a subtle hint of spice.
Vibrant expressions of passionfruit and gooseberry leap from the glass. Light, dry and delicate.
The aroma lingers with attractive notes of lime, lemongrass and passionfruit. The palate is crisp and lively.
A delicious fruit driven Chardonnay with depth & finesse. Peaches and cream texture with a nuance of cashew nut.
Fresh and flavoursome best describes our Verdelho. The essence and the vitality of the variety have been captured in a wine of fragrant tropical fruit with a crisp, dry finish.
Grown in Western Australia’s Frankland region. The continental climate has cool nights, essential for Riesling.
Chardonnay is made from 100% estate grown Chardonnay off the Karridale vineyard.
After the fruit reached optimum ripeness, it was left on the vine for a further week in mild Autumn weather.
Flinders Bay Sparkling exhibits a fine and persistent bead, the hallmark of true method traditionally sparkling wines.
