Following several warm, dry vintages in Margaret River, we sought out a vineyard at the southern end of the Cape, a place where conditions are naturally cooler and shaped not only by the Indian Ocean, but also by the Southern Ocean. This dual maritime influence extends the growing season, producing fruit with naturally higher acidity, greater tension and layered texture. In 2025, the contrast across the region was striking: fields in the south remained green and vibrant, while those to the north were dry and golden. Increased moisture, greater cloud cover and cooling Southern Ocean breezes, combined with classic rich gravelly loam soils, have delivered a Chardonnay that feels distinctly different. This site brings a fresh and compelling new expression to our portfolio.

Granny smith apple,  ice cream, lemon, lime, wet stone and sea salt. Elegant, silky smooth , fresh and delicious. Think chablis with a bit more oomph.
