The wine region of Margaret River
Australia's south-western tip between Cape Naturaliste and Leeuwin: signature Cabernet Sauvignon as red king (~33%, the "Australian Bordeaux") — structured and elegant with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, mint and a peppery touch, firm tannins. Racy mineral Chardonnay (citrus, white peach, hazelnut butter, like Burgundy). Lively Sauvignon-Sémillon in signature blend. Mediterranean climate tempered by two oceans, red laterites and limestone.
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: Racé
Character of a great wine remarkable for its elegance and finesse.
