85/8/5/2% cabernet sauvignon (Houghton clone)/malbec/petit verdot/cabernet franc. Matured for 18 months in French oak. The mention of Houghton clone in Wilyabrup is important, for the particular way that it expresses itself: supple, succulent, red fruited and powerful; it imbues the wines with grace and ease. So too, this release. This has all these attributes, layers of pomegranate, raspberry, red licorice, saltbush, cassis and peppercorn. A beautiful wine, with a proven track record for graceful ageing. This vintage will be no exception.
Beef and Venison
Savoury on the nose with aromas of nori sheet, bay leaf, roast capsicum, and earthy, cedary with some red berry notes.
Nicely balanced on the palate with soft grainy tannins and moderate acidity and subtle oak.
