Discover the grape variety: Cacaboué

Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, testament to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the Southwest and studied for its genetic interest. Rare French white grape formerly cultivated in the Southwest.

The wine region of Mornington Peninsula

Australian cool-climate star (peninsula south of Melbourne): signature Pinot Noir as king red (50%) — fine and fragrant with notes of cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and a spicy touch, silky tannins and taut acidity shaped by the sea (<7 km). Racy mineral Chardonnay with notes of citrus, white peach, flowers and a saline finish, exceptional natural acidity. Varied soils (sand, alluvium, volcanic terra rossa of Red Hill). Influence of Bass Strait and Port Phillip.

The wine region of Victoria

Australian diversity from cool to temperate climate. Yarra Valley and Mornington: fine, silky Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), taut, mineral Chardonnay. Heathcote: structured Shiraz with black fruits, pepper and chocolate. Rutherglen, fortified capital: opulent sweet Topaque and Muscat (raisin, caramel, fig, roast notes).
