- TASTING NOTE: "Intriguing. Fragrant dried florals, vibrant red and black fruit, rosehip, cocoa dust, sea spray. Exuberant palate has good fruit intensity. Lovely flow from the aromatics to flavours of blackberry, redcurrant, salted plum, spice box, saltbush, rosemary, bay leaf and oh so much nori. Oak frames and complements the fruit; powdery tannins marry lifted acidity. Confident but not showy. Will age well." 95 Points - Cassandra Charlick, Decanter
- ABOUT THE WINE: The fruit was hand-picked, de-stemmed and the berries just split to allow for minimal breakdown of the skin and to preserve the natural fruit freshness. The grapes were pumped over three times a day for 18 days, after which the wine was separated from the skins and allowed to finish fermentation in premium French oak barriques. The wine is aged in 45% new oak barrels for 18 months, after which it was blended, clarified and bottled. Streicker Wines

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Clairault Streicker is a family owned grower and wine producer based in Margaret River, located on the rugged south-west coastline of Western Australia. John H. Streicker visited Margaret River for the first time in 2001. He was taken by the relaxed Margaret River lifestyle, the region’s passion for sustainable viticulture and world-class wine production. His visit left a lasting impression and was the impetus to starting his search for the highest quality vineyards and starting his own winery brands in the south west. Now with four vineyards spanning over 200 hectares under vine, a stunning vineyard kitchen and cellar door, and over 40 years of history, John accomplished his dream of producing some of Margaret River’s most exceptional wines.
