Nose
Intense, brooding dark berry fruits and floral characters with hints of spice. Forest floor earthy complexities give a savory tone underlying the pristine fruit.
Palate
A rich and concentrated palate, with dark cherry and plum fruit characters intermingling with savoury, earthy notes. The fruit flavour persists long through the finish, with elegant fine tannins and hints of violets and herbs.
Background
The start to the season was cooler than normal with a wet winter (20% above average) below average for spring, and with perfect growing conditions through December and on into late February, with only five days above 30 degrees. The vines then responded well to warming trend through December and January, providing mid-sized canopies with very little amounts of lateral shoot growth. Subsequently these canopies required less maintenance to present fruit yield to canopy ratios for quality fruit. Overall, with exceptional crop management and diligent viticultural practices we will see a flavoursome 2018 vintage. The cooler vintage has given abundant natural acidity in physiologically ripe grapes at moderate sugar levels, with very high anthocyanin levels in red wines. The vintage will show very fine, focused and highly aromatic wines with great linear natural acidity giving longevity and class. The 2018 vintage will be another great vintage for Margaret River.
