Description St. John’s was set up in WA’s Blackwood Valley and Yelverton at the end of the last century. This Cabernet with “lovely depth of fruit flavour… rich and mouthfilling” (The Real Review), is from vineyards in Margaret River’s Yelverton. Its “poise and length, making it a classy drink” Erin Larkin, The Halliday Wine Companion. “Youthful and vibrant red in the glass. Complex aromas of lead pencil, cedar, dried herbs, blackberry, mulberry and brambles, archetypal Margaret River Cabernet. Rich and mouth-filling on the palate: blackberry, dark cherry, briar, dark chocolate, menthol and charry oak."Aaron Brasher, The Real Review.
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.
