Description

Violets and lavender produce an elevated and aromatic nose, whilst dark brooding fruits of dark cherries, currants and blueberries as provide the foundation. Nestled within, the delicateness of black cardomom, vanilla pod, clove, dried rosemary and anise offer added detail and complexity.

Concentrated and layered on the entry, the palate evolves to a precise and tightly-coiled corridor. An abundance of dark fruits encase the delicate notes of coffee bean, coriander seed and cumin. The finely balanced palate has finesse and elegance, with a mineral and graphite thread. The supple tannins lead to an ethereal finish.

Awards

"A wine that shows the continuing evolution of Margaret River cabernets, and this one, which is sort of the entry-level for Leeuwin as far as cabernet goes, is a cracking good example of the variety and how far it's come in recent years. It was a good season and it's captured here. It's largely cabernet, but a small percentage of malbec has been included. And this always just finishes the wine so perfectly. It's loaded with blackcurrant, dark chocolate, even a little mulberry. There's a brightness and an energy, and there's structure and purpose here, right through to the finish. It's a classy example of Leeuwin cabernet from these southern vineyards."

Ray Jordan, WA Wine Review 2026
“The nose is perfumed and inviting, with aromas of blood plums, dark cherries and licorice. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with notes of boysenberries, dried herbs and baking spice framed by a well-structured tannin profile. Very giving and lush. Delicious."
