VINTAGE: 2020 was a perfect vintage for red wines. The maturation period through the growing season saw the classic Margaret River weather patterns giving rise to good canopy development and soil moisture levels with good maturities across all varieties.

VINIFICATION: Fermented for seven days on skins, pressed, and run off to seasoned oak. The wine was then matured for twelve months prior to release.

Dan Murphy’s Wine Panel: “Cabernet Merlot is a blend that Margaret River does very well. Here’s another success at a great price. You’ll enjoy its bright red fruit, say, raspberry and red currants, with freshening acidity, and with the oak influences of cocao, dark chocolate and cedar providing extra weight, complexity and dimension.” (2015 Vintage)

Ray Jordan: “Captures all that is good in this blend from the Yallingup region. Generous medium-weight fruit with a nice balance of chalky fine tannins and little oak.(2018 Vintage)
