Winemaker Notes:

Inky purple. Classic cabernet aroma of blackcurrant. The wine is medium-bodied with primary flavours of blackcurrant and bay leaf, layered with secondary cedar and chocolate. Velvety soft tannins and a long finish.

Pedestal is so named due to the elevation of the Margaret River vineyard we initially sourced fruit from to create these wines.

It is with our Pedestal range, now encompassing a number of vineyards from north to south, that we seek to uncover and express sub-regionality in this part of the world.  In general terms, Northern Margaret River is better suited to red wines with its slightly warmer Indian Ocean influence whereas southern Margaret River is better suited to whites due to the cooling influence of the Southern Ocean breeze.
