Description The name Risky Business is decidedly tongue-in-cheek because the partnership headed by Rob Quenby has neatly side-stepped any semblance of risk. The grapes come from vineyards in Great Southern and Margaret River in WA and King Valley in Victoria." "Nothing risky here!" writes John Lehmann in the The Australian, "...stone fruits and white peach aromas with a dash of vanilla, leading to a rich, creamy palate, with a hint of toasty biscuits". Sam Kim Wine Orbit is another fan: "Elegant and inviting, the wine shows ripe stone fruit, rockmelon, hazelnut and nougat aromas, leading to a beautifully weighted palate offering rounded mouthfeel backed by refreshing acidity, finishing lingering and succulent. At its best: now to 2028. 90pts”
Renowned for its surf breaks, Margaret River is also famous for its wine production and tourism. Margaret River wines account for just 3% of Australia’s annual wine production, but commands over 20 percent of the Australian premium wine market.
Little wonder the wines are rather pricey in nature. The region is made up of boutique wineries. The weather is maritime, with warm summers, influenced by refreshing sea breezes and strong winds and rather akin to Bordeaux.
