Voyager Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2003

Voyager Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2003Voyager Estate is one of Margaret River's oldest vineyards, located In the Stevens Valley in the subregion of Wallcliffe. The vineyard was first planted in 1978 and subsequently purchased by mining heir Michael Wright in 1991. It is part of what James Halliday refers to as the 'golden triangle' of Margaret River encompassing Voyager Estate, Leeuwin Estate and Cape Mentelle. This impeccably run Estate crafts a set of wines that ooze style and class.

The tannins are firm yet integrated and the wine finishes with lingering gentle black berry fruits

making it one of the driest regions on the island

Haunting perfume of undergrowth

In comparison to the Block Five this wine is more seductive and delicious in its youth whilst still significantly rewarding cellar time

It's wild fermented and does not go through malo

A bursting juicy palate – so much flavour of a tangy and sherbetty persuasion – pulled together with fine acidity

Tension and vibrancy on the entry

Soft and round
