The wine region of Frankland River
Most productive sub-region of Great Southern in Western Australia (1,600 ha at 150-300 m): Riesling flagship white — dry and taut with chiseled citrus notes and saline minerality, distinct freshness from northern warm Rieslings. Cabernet Sauvignon reference flagship red — elegant and structured, black fruits and fine tannins. Also peppery Shiraz and lively Chardonnay. Mediterranean climate tempered by the Southern Ocean 80 km away, fresh and mineral identity.
The wine region of Australie de l'Ouest
Australian premium on Margaret River. Signature Bordeaux Cabernet-Merlot blends in red: deep and refined with notes of ripe blackcurrant, eucalyptus, cedar and graphite, firm tannins and great ageing, often compared to Médoc. Chardonnay rated Australia's best: taut, saline and mineral (lemon, hazelnut, brioche). Lively Sauvignon-Sémillon (citrus, cut grass).
The word of the wine: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
