Product Description: Depth, structure and classical Margaret River character define this flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from one of the region’s pioneering estates. The 2021 Pierro VR Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from mature vines planted in the celebrated Willyabrup subregion, where maritime influence and gravelly loam soils create ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon of concentration and balance. “VR,” meaning Vieilles Réserves, signifies the estate’s most select parcels and oldest vineyard material, reserved for wines of exceptional quality and ageing potential. Crafted by Michael Dhillon, the wine reflects a meticulous and low-intervention approach that prioritises vineyard expression, textural refinement and longevity. The 2021 vintage delivered excellent growing conditions in Margaret River, producing fruit with intense flavour definition, natural acidity and finely structured tannins. In the glass, the wine reveals layered blackcurrant and dark plum fruit intertwined with cedar, graphite, dried herbs and subtle earthy complexity. Extended maturation in high-quality French oak contributes polish and structure while allowing the purity of the fruit to remain central. The palate is concentrated yet composed, balancing richness with freshness and savoury detail. Fine tannins provide shape and persistence without heaviness, carrying the wine through a long and poised finish. There is a distinctly classical feel to the wine, recalling the restraint and elegance of great Left Bank Bordeaux while remaining unmistakably Margaret River in profile. Built for long-term cellaring, the 2021 Pierro VR Cabernet Sauvignon stands as a compelling example of modern Australian Cabernet at a world-class level. Tasting Notes NOSE – Deep and expressive Aromas of blackcurrant, cassis and dark plum layered with cedar, graphite, bay leaf, dried herbs and subtle tobacco spice.

Chateau Lascombes is a second grand cru classé of Margaux, renowned for producing perfumed elegant wines which gain greater depth and complexity with cellaring. The 118 ha vineyard of the Chateau is one of the largest and most fragmented in the area with plots spread across the Margaux appellation. Plantings comprise 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot anchored predominantly on gravel, clay and sand soils. The wine is vinified in a combination of wood and stainless steel vats and then aged in 80% new French oak barriques for 18 months. Serious investment both in the vineyard and winery has led to a notable renaissance in quality in recent years.

With a long and tumultuous history in the Haut-Médoc, stretching all the way back to its classification as one of fourteen 3me crus in the 1855 Classification, the Chateau has been rescued from obscurity, sold from family to family and endured superbly, as this latest offering amply exhibits. Unique, vibrant, and deep in colour, the 2016 can proudly hold its head up among the best La Lagune releases of recent years. Intensely aromatic, with a supple, medium-bodied palate, it will benefit from four or five years in the cellar and give ample rewards for your patience.

With a history dating back to 1143, Chateau du Tertre is one of the oldest properties in Bordeaux. Since 1995 it has been in the hands of the Jelgersma family, also owners of Chateau Giscours. The du Tertre vineyard is a large single block, with 52ha under vine, planted to Cabernet Sauvignon (55%), Merlot (27%), Cabernet Franc (11%) and Petit Verdot (7%). Biodynamic viticultural techniques were being introduced beginning in 2008 and du Tertre was one of the first in Bordeaux to ferment grapes in egg-shaped concrete vats. The property produces a second wine, Les Hauts de Tertre, and from 2014 a dry white wine, Tertre Blanc, an unusual blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier and Gros Manseng. This Margaux property was classified Cinquieme Cru (Fifth Growth) in 1855.
