2019 Wills Domain Mystic Spring Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon

The cool spring brought a late bud burst and this delay continued through the mild summer. Occasional showers had no effect on fruit quality, which was excellent, but yields were lower than expected owing to cold winds during flowering.

The grapes grew on Wills Domain’s Yallingup vineyard. After crushing, they fermented at the relatively cool temperature of 24°C to emphasise soft tannins and rich flavours. The wine matured for eight months with French oak.

Colour
Mid-deep red with purple tinge.

Nose
Rich, red and dark berries. Fresh, with sweet fruits.

Structure / Palate
Medium bodied. Stylish, with good depth of berry flavours. Fine tannins and a fresh touch of acidity on the finish.

This is a typically elegant Margaret River Cabernet. The grapes have been selected and the wine made for immediate drinkability, yet it will develop cedar and tobacco-like complexity past 2025.

Try it with red meats, pasta or simply by itself.
