Growing conditions in the south west of Western Australia were fabulous for the making of great wine and extended the succession of highly rated vintage since 2007. The typical weather pattern of sufficient yet below average winter rains; a cool and moody spring, a warm, dry summer and a benign autumn, set an exciting backdrop.

Aromas of vanilla bean spice .lemon curd, nougat, a rising mineral flintiness and powerful pink citrus and white flesh nectarine fruits.

The palate is rich and lively yet restrained and textured by a chalky/mineral thread. A little more than subtle, the fine grain French oak adds a bready complexity. The bright acidity gives length, clarity and finish to the wine.

Lemon yellow in colour.

Crab cakes with a spicy mango salsa.
