Rockcliffe Peaceful Bay Merlot
In the glass: Medium to deep red black. On the nose: Full of bright red cherry with hints of red olive and fine oak spice.

Lovely now yet with good mid-term potential.

Spicy blend with some red plummy fruit characters to create a wine with full flavour and lovely length. Just right with slow-roasted veal and mushroom casserole.
Leeuwin Estate Prelude Cabernet
The bouquet shows great density, ripe concentrated blackcurrant, anise, black cardamom and lifted lavender with hints of black olives and plum aromas. The entry on the palate is soft and succulent whilst displaying a subtle texture with a black core of fruit including boysenberry, dark cherries and olive tapinade. The tannin and acid are seamlessly integrated from the front through to the long and lingering finish.
Single Site Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2018 Single Site Cabernet is an elegant wine with notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, and a hint of mint. Displaying a perfumed nose of dark berry fruits and earthy tones, there is a smooth silkiness to balance the fine chewy tannins of the Cabernet.
Castelli The Sum Great Southern Cabernet Sauvignon
Blackberry core with a strawberry rim. A pretty nose of blackcurrant and primary fruits, youthful and fresh. Quite light and juicy on the palate. A touch smoky and savoury with blackcurrant and cherry. Fresh tannins that are drying but fine, integrated alcohol, light oak influence.
Vasse Felix Tom Cullity Cabernet Malbec
Vasse Felix, Margaret River's founding wine estate, was established by Dr Thomas Brendan Cullity in 1967. Among his first plantings were Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec vines, from which he produced the estate's first red wine. The Tom Cullity descends from these original vines and represents the pinnacle of Vasse Felix. The inaugural release will be in May 2017, coinciding with Vasse Felix's 50th Anniversary.
Deep Woods Cabernet Merlot
This Deep Wood wine displays ripe berries and cassis aromas with distinctive cedary oak and crush mint leave. On the palate, this Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend, unfolds in the complex layers of red fruit with black olive nuances further enhanced by subtle savoury oak. The fine tannins gives it a great lengthy finish. A wine, which will be enjoyable now over dinner with family and friends. Or provided with an ideal cellaring condition, this Deep Wood Cabernet blend will blossom further up to five to seven years.
