Description Winner of Trophies for 'Best Dry Red' at Perth Royal Wine Awards, as well as 'Best Blended Red Wine' and 'Champion Wine of Show' at the Langhorne Creek Wine Show. The 97pt, multi-Gold-medal Frank Potts Cabernet Blend easily demonstrates why Bleasdale has earned the Halliday Wine Companion's top gong of 'Winery of the Year 2024'. After purchasing land on the Bremer River, Frank Potts himself cleared it of red gums, planted vineyards, and then used the timber to build his winery. Six generations on, it is his work ethic and enduring legacy that drives everyone at Bleasdale. It has been an exceptional few years for Bleasdale, after winning two of the Australian wine industry's most coveted trophies, Paul Hotker being awarded the Halliday 'Winemaker of the Year 2018', and then the Winery of the Year crown in '24. Their flagship Cabernet Blend is layered and complex with red berry and darker fruit aromas. These characters continue onto the palate, with fruit layers supported by fine oak tannin and lively berry persistence. This Triple Trophy, very highly scored 2021 is a blend of four Bordeaux grapes Cabernet sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Merlot and quite simple is an "outstanding achievement... 97pts. Value Star" (James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion).
