COLOUR 

Deep brick red with a purple hue

NOSE

Generous but with some restraint, with lifted cherry, dark fruits, blackcurrant, and integrated cedary oak.

PALATE

Concentrated, rich, and very complex. This is a stylish wine with a lovely texture and presence. The palate is concentrated with sweet fruit in the mid- palate, finishing with some characteristic Margaret River Cabernet tannins, which are soft, powerful, and lingering.

WINEMAKING

Our Estate grown Eightfold Cabernet grapes were sourced predominantly from our Wills Domain and Yallingup Estate vineyards. Picked in the cool of the morning, gently destemmed and inoculated with a cultured yeast strain and fermented at 24oC-28oC. At dryness the wine was pressed off skins and matured in French oak for nine months in 20% new, 15% one-year-old, and 17% two-year-old barrels, before being bottled in February 2023.

FOOD PAIRING
