2019 Odyssey Garden Cabernet Sauvignon

A beautiful expression of the Geographe wine region in Western Australia. The wine displays a deep ruby colour, with inviting aromas of blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and cedar. The palate is fresh and aromatic with with flavours of blackberry, spices, and toasty oak. The tannins are medium and dusty. Long Finish.

The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes for this wine are grown in two vineyards, from our own vineyard here at Whicher Ridge, and from a vineyard in Donnybrook. A small amount of shiraz (4%) for this wine is from a friend’s vineyard, also in Donnybrook, and the malbec (6%) is from the Knotting Hill Vineyard in Margaret River. The Donnybrook area is part of the Geographe Wine Region, and produces flavours with riper, red and black berry flavours, and a richness to the palate due to the warmer ripening conditions. The gravelly granitic loam soils and undulating terrain, delivers shiraz that is quite distinctive to the Donnybrook sub-region with a mix of riper blueberry and blackberry flavours, and in warmer years more cherry, raspberry jam and plum flavours.
