A soft and juicy palate abounds with ripe blueberries, Satsuma plums and red berry sweets. Whilst underlying milk chocolate, fresh vanilla pods and sweetened spices make for a memorable marriage of flavours. A velvety structure with lingering flavours makes this wine a crowd pleaser in any situation!\\\u0026quot;\\n\\nWinemaker Notes\\\u0026quot;The fruit for this wine comes from Hazel’s Vineyard which is our southernmost vineyard. Whole berries were transferred by gravity into 5 tonne concrete fermenters. 30% of the fruit was hand harvested for whole bunch fermentation and additional spice and aromatic lift. Wild fermentation underwent at low temperatures and gentle extraction was carried out by pumping over twice daily. After 8 to 14 days on skins the juice was pressed and transferred to large format oak casks for 14 months maturation.\\\u0026quot;\\n\\nFounded by one of the pioneers of the Margaret River winemaking region, David Hohnen, and his brother in law, Murray McHenry, an accomplished fine wine retailer. Both have been making wine in Margaret River since the early 1970’s. McHenry Hohnen vineyards are 100% biodynamic. Their three unique vineyards (Burnside, Calgardup and Hazel’s) produce wines that are a reflection of the land. McHenry Hohnen focus on crafting site expressive wines and are known for producing some of the region's best wines.\\n\\n\\\u0026quot;McHenry Hohnen is tucked away off Bussell Highway to the south of Margaret River. The wines have bound from strength, a comment never truer than under the stewardship of winemaker Jacopo (Japo). Under his leadership, the wines have been catapulted into a new realm of quality. The chardonnays particularly exemplify that hard-to-achieve balance of pleasurable on release, and capable of graceful ageing. The move towards organics and sustainable farming has had a positive impact on the quality of the wines, and it is a delight to witness so much diversity in the vineyards - from experimental clones and new plantings, to sheep, chickens, olives and vegetables. McHenry Hohnen is an estate on the move - divert your eyes at your peril - EL.\\\u0026quot;\\n\\nMargaret River is one of the best known wine regions in Australia, recognized internationally for the quality of its wines and the natural beauty of the region. Although originally renowned for its unusually refined cabernet sauvignon and intensely citrusy chardonnay varieties, the region now produces high quality Semillon-Sauvignon blends and Shiraz.\\n\\nLocated in the south-western corner of Western Australia, it is famous for having a more 'European' wine style than its counterparts across Australia, owing to the regions temperate, coastal location which is very similar to that of Bordeaux.\\n\\nSauvignon Blanc – Semillon is a classic white wine blend. It is most widely produced in France (most notably Bordeaux's Graves district), where both Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon are well-established varieties, and has more recently caught on in Australia (particularly Margaret River). The versatile blend is typically made into crisp, dry wines, but it is also the blend of choice for the world's most prestigious sweet wine style, Sauternes. The blend is endowed with vibrant acidity and grassy aromas by Sauvignon Blanc, and its structure and mouthfeel from Semillon.\u0026quot;}\" data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze - The Real Review, Huon Hooke \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90\/100 The Real Review, Stuart Knox \u003c\/strong\u003e(2017 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92\/100 Halliday Wine Companion, James Halliday \u003c\/strong\u003e(2016 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91\/100 The Real Review, Huon Hooke \u003c\/strong\u003e(2015 vintage) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90\/100 The Wine Front \u003c\/strong\u003e(2015 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze - Halliday Wine Companion, Ned Goodwin MW\u003c\/strong\u003e (2015 vintage) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e16\/20 Jancis Robinson \u003c\/strong\u003e(2010 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze - The Real Review, Huon Hooke \u003c\/strong\u003e(2013 vintage) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze - Tom Cannavan \u003c\/strong\u003e(2008 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze - Jamie Goode \u003c\/strong\u003e(2004 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5 Stars - McHenry Hohen Vintners\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5 Star Winery - James Halliday\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBronze - International Wine Challenge \u003c\/strong\u003e(2009 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilver - International Wine Challenge \u003c\/strong\u003e(2008 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommended - International Wine Challenge \u003c\/strong\u003e(2007 vintage)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Halliday Wine Companion - Australian Winery of the Year 2022 \u0026amp; 2023\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHuon Hooke\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Deep red colour with tints of black and purple.
