The name ‘Vagabondo’ describes the fruit with no home and the different approach and style to fermenting these varietals to show a fun, brighter, vagabond expression.
This fruit comes from a single vineyard in the Yallingup sub region in Margaret River. Yallingup is known for producing well ripened red varietals and this block is on the northern fringes of the region allowing for earlier ripening. The site’s positioning combined with the warmer vintage, made for a rapid veraison for both the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlots desirable ripe flavours, pronouncing themselves quickly and beautifully with green characters falling away fast in these conditions.
Deep crimson colour in glass. The nose hits of Margaret River. Ripe rich berries with some light, distinct leafy and brambly characteristics come together. This wine has is a full-bodied wine which is still both soft and rich. On the palate it has well rounded tannins with concentrated fruit flavours.
