100% cabernet sauvignon

Halliday Wine Companion, Erin Larkin "This wine has been tasted blind a number of times recently, and it is fascinating each time. The aromas are finely layered with cassis, exotic spice, salt bush, dried bay leaf ... there's also a faint backdrop of bacon fat, reminiscent of the Rhône. The tannins on the palate are a standout; super-fine and laid out like a web over the fruit. Very classy. This 2020 has more obvious fruit and structure than the 2019, but we expect that from the vintage. "

The Wine Front, Gary Walsh "It’s a graceful style of Cabernet, fine boned and fresh. Blackberry, strawberry, redcurrant, potpourri, slight smoky bacon bone character, and a sea spray/brine kind of thing. Tannin is tight with an emery board texture, subtle tobacco/leafy perfume, and a cool red fruited finish of excellent length, those high quality tannins really stretching it out. Subtle. Lovely."

Robert Parker "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon has notes of rose petals, lead pencil shavings, cassis, red apple skins, lavender on the breeze, saltbush, kalamata olives and iodine on the nose. In the mouth, the wine is a spicy, ever-evolving, supple Cabernet from the Mann's Calgardup vineyard. There is a harmony and peace in this wine that remains through each of the vintages. Modern and a little bit thrilling."

Halliday Wine Companion, Erin Larkin "Luminescent ruby with glints of purple and black. It shines as if with its own dense internal light. The telltale ripe and chewy tannin profile handled masterfully by Rob Mann, with pristine fruit and great length of flavour. An exceptionally elegant, powder-fine cabernet, part of the new Margaret River breed. A massive, resounding, YES." (2019 vintage)

The Real Review, Huon Hooke "Deep, bright purple/red hue. Lifted, high-register violet, blueberry spectrum aromas, the palate medium to full-bodied and lean-ish, with a trace of bitterness in the tannins. A very fragrant, franc-like cabernet with a touch of grip to lose." (2019 vintage)

Halliday Wine Companion, Jane Faulkner "The inaugural release with fruit off the Mann family's organically farmed Calgardup vineyard, and the result is a beautifully composed wine. This is all about detail. Heady aromas of mulberries, florals, soy sauce and salt bush with a wisp of menthol. Lots going on yet medium-bodied with superfine tannins that glide across the palate. A wine of great finesse." (2018 vintage)

The Real Review, Nick Butler "Dense purple colour - opaque. Brooding dark fruits and graphite. Intense on the palate - blackberries, firm oak and grippy tannins. A tease of sweetness lends charm. This is young and has an incredibly long future ahead of it. Beautifully balanced, precise and poised " (2018 vintage)

James Suckling "This has a deep tarry edge to the nose with black fruit, wrapped up in a savory shroud with slate-like notes. A very attractive and convincingly concentrated palate that offers ripe dark plums, black cherries and dark, stony minerals at the fresh, polished, graphite-like finish. Impressive poise and depth." (2018 vintage)

Gourmet Traveller Wine "The wines under the Corymbia label have been outstanding."

Rob & Gen Mann "Very satisfying"

Gourmet Traveller Wine, Mike Bennie "Corymbia is one of the most exciting wine projects to emerge from Western Australia in a decade. The combination of a distinguished winemaking family, the reinvention of a much-maligned wine region, the unlocking of the potential of a mature vineyard and a general sense of creativity, have all contributed to a strong currency.

Corymbia is the newish project of Rob and Genevieve Mann. The Mann family, of course, are generational wine producers in WA, with a history of iconic wines and vineyards. Rob, formerly working with Hardys, Cape Mentelle and Newton Vineyard in Napa Valley, has returned home and made a mark.

The family vineyard in Swan Valley is dry grown and organically farmed. While winemaking draws on the Manns’ suite of expertise and diversity of influences, it has been pared back for Corymbia, letting the fruit and character of the wines take the spotlight.

That Swan Valley has been put on a pedestal is wonderful, and a celebration of older vineyards, unique soil profile and a general sense of generational endeavor is exciting for the region. There’s an undercurrent of winemakers amplifying the region’s potential, but arguably Corymbia is the current totem."

Huon Hooke "The Mann family are winemaking royalty in Western Australia."

Corymbia is a new winery launched by one of the founding families of Western Australian wine. The Manns have grown grapes and made wine in the Swan Valley, Western Australia's oldest wine-growing region for over a century. Corymbia wines are critically acclaimed, organically-farmed, single-vineyard wines. Founder, Rob Mann is considered one of Australia's best contemporary winemakers. He was the senior winemaker at Hardy’s Tintara, and Cape Mentelle, where during his ten-year tenure the winery was twice awarded 'Australia's Producer of the Year' and Rob 'Australian Winemaker of the Year'. Prior to founding Corymbia he was Senior Winemaker at LVMH’s Newton Vineyard in the Napa Valley.

Swan Valley is a sub-region of the Swan District wine region just north of Perth, in Western Australia. The Swan District is Western Australia’s oldest wine region, having been planted by English settlers soon after their arrival in 1829. For almost 150 years it was the only significant wine-producing region in Western Australia and today it's also home to the state's largest winery. Some of Western Australia's finest wines are produced in the Swan Valley.

Cabernet Sauvignon is probably the most famous red wine grape variety on Earth. It is rivaled in this regard only by its Bordeaux stablemate Merlot, and its opposite number in Burgundy, Pinot Noir. From its origins in Bordeaux, Cabernet has successfully spread to almost every winegrowing country in the world. It is now the key grape variety in many first-rate New World wine regions, most notably Napa Valley, Coonawarra, and Maipo Valley. Wherever they come from, Cabernet Sauvignon wines always seem to demonstrate a handful of common character traits: deep color, good tannin structure, moderate acidity and aromas of blackcurrant, tomato leaf, dark spices, and cedarwood.

Silver - The TEXSOM International Wine Awards (2019 vintage)

Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion "Supple, elegant, fine-framed cabernet. This is super-pretty, fragrant and lithe, littered with red berries, flowers, blood plums and bay leaves. The palate is a little more substantive and weighty than the Phoenix, but that's to be expected for the extra money. This has presence and poise. Gorgeous." (2020 vintage)

Wine Spectator "Spicy, juicy and fragrant, with jammy huckleberry and blackberry flavors at the core, alongside aromatic details of chai tea, dried oregano and toasted cumin details on the long, complex finish. Tannins are dense but polished and velvety on the finish." (2019 vintage)

James Suckling "A bold and more classically styled wine that has big, intense style with plenty of tannin, plenty of oak and big, rich berry flavors." (2019 vintage)

Ralph Kyte-Powell, The Real Review "Deep, saturated purple colour looks the goods for a 2019 Coonawarra cabernet. There's good harmony and ripeness on the nose here, with dark fruit and undergrowthy aromas combining nicely with well modulated oak. The palate is smooth and easy textured with good length and perfectly integrated soft tannins. " (2019 vintage)

Wine Enthusiast "While currently quite austere and tightly wound, Tolmer also shows what feels like a little volatile acidity. In this case it adds, rather than detracts, by adding lift and complexity to the broody aromas of cassis, black cherry, mint and spice. The palate is framed by drying, dusty tannins that cinch the plump fruit and earthy spice." (2019 vintage)

1 x Atticus Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 ~ Margaret River, Western Australia

94/100 James Halliday

Bronze, Royal Melbourne Wine Show 2011

James Halliday "..an elegant, medium-bodied cassis and blackcurrant style that has exceptional length and balance."

Latelier Wines "...a medium-bodied palate and soft fleshy finish supported by supple fine-grained tannins."

James Halliday "A very successful venture under the control of CEO Ron Fraser. The wines come from the estate vineyards planted to chardonnay, Semillon, sauvignon blanc, shiraz, cabernet sauvignon and merlot.....[The winery's] ultra-premium wines are under the Atticus label."

Atticus is owned by Chapman Grove Wines; a small winery focussed on making limited edition fine wines from Margaret River, Western Australia. Described by Australia's N#1 wine critic, James Halliday as "a very successful venture", the winery is known for its highly rated wines and was established in 2005 by an esteemed veteran of the industry, Ron Fraser. Pop Up Wine has secured back vintages of a collection of its highly rated wines.

Atticus utilises exceptional fruit which is all 100% estate grown to create its world-class wines. Its range includes varieties most suited to the Margaret River climate, with French oak used to bring out flavours of the terroir, creating a true expression of the region.

The winery achieved the highly coveted 5 Red Star rating from James Halliday within three short years of first entering the Wine Companion in 2009. Since the the estate's first release in 2006, its wines have been awarded 4 Trophies, 3 Top Gold, 3 Gold, 8 Silver and 39 Bronze medals.

Winemaker of the Year 2024 - Halliday Wine Companion

5 Stars - Halliday Wine Companion


Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion "This is the sweet, vibrant, energetic sister to the Chertsey. This is poised and exciting – a cool combination – and shows a sumptuous spread of ripe berry fruits and fresh exotic spices. Star anise, blood plums, blackberries, raspberries and fennel seeds are woven into the very fabric of the wine. Pretty gorgeous stuff, here."

James Suckling "A conventionally styled cabernet with complex aromas of dark berries and herbs, as well as olives and forest wood. The palate has bright blueberry and plum flavors, served up with a composed, groomed style."

Wine Enthusiast "An open-knit, modern expression of Coonawarra, this finds lovely balance between ripe, tangy berry fruit, dark chocolate and savory spice. It's more medium bodied than full but the mouthfeel is luscious, gently tugged by well-integrated, spicy and leathery tannins."

Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion "...evolve superbly, a hallmark of this majestic variety. But it is also approachable now, with the appealing freshness of bright dark fruit. It's lightly scented, delicately spiced with powdery tannins and finishes long. (2018 vintage)

Ralph Kyte-Powell, The Real Review "Medium to deep red colour with a purple tint. Tightly-wound blackcurrant fruit has a light minty leafiness and well measured cigar-boxy oak adds aromatic interest. This is a medium-weight mouthful, dry and quite austere in style, with tasty ripe fruit at its heart. At the moment it seems to fall away very slightly in intensity across the palate, but it has real length of flavour, and it should build apparent depth with age as its firm tannins melt away. A wine for the cellar." (2018 vintage)

James Suckling "A juicy and velvety red with plums, crushed berries and hints of spice. Full body, soft tannins and a flavorful finish." (2017 vintage)

Wine Enthusiast "This is classic Coonawarra. Purple and red fruit mingle with earthy, herbal notes, along with a briney streak black olives and subtle charred vegetable notes at the back. The powerful palate is somewhat austere, wound by raspy tannins, but there's a lift of juicy currant and plum fruit alongside a flicker of oak in a supporting role." (2017 vintage)

The iconic Penley Estate arose from a combination of the prestigious Penfold and Tolley wine families. Winemaker Kate Goodman is regarded as one of Australia’s best contemporary winemakers, having worked at wineries in McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Great Western and Yarra Valley. Penley Estate estate shot to prominence in 1989 when Phoenix Cabernet Sauvignon won Gold at the prestigious Adelaide Wine Show. Since that time the estate has grown significantly to over 80 hectares of vines and is run by 5th generation family members, sisters Ang & Bec Tolley.

Coonawarra is the most important wine region within the Limestone Coast zone of South Australia, credited with producing some of the best red wines in the country, and often described as Australia's most famous terroir. The region's prime Terra Rossa land, which has a reddish-brown topsoil over a thick layer of soft limestone, covers a narrow strip only 12 kilometres long. The reddish colour of the soil is caused by iron-oxide (rust) formations in the clay. Vineyards on this soil benefit from good drainage and nutrient-holding capacity.

Cabernet Sauvignon – Merlot wines are made from two of the world's most famous and most widely grown wine grapes. The pair form the foundation of many of the great wines of Bordeaux, where this classic blend (often dubbed ""Bordeaux Blend"") is thought to have originated. For centuries, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot have been the quintessential Bordeaux wine grapes, but their fame and popularity have now taken them far beyond the banks of the Garonne, Dordogne and Gironde, to the furthest reaches of the wine world.

96/100 - Top Cabernet Halliday Wine Companion Awards 2023 (2018 vintage)

Halliday Wine Companion Awards 2023, Erin Larkin "Rooted in the very fabric of this wine is a savoury lining of spice. It is inescapable, and it's what makes this wine a wonder. Is it better than the great 2014? Hard to say – the 2014 was pretty amazing. But this has all the ripe power and concentration of the vintage. The pure 'cabernosity' of this wine is a thing to marvel at. I keep coming back to the savoury layers ... they are a defining characteristic of the house style." (2018 vintage)

Jane Faulkner "Vibrant deep inky purple; really peppery with black cherries and plums. At first, tightly wound although the ample tannins are here on the full-bodied palate. Still finding its groove, which it will."

James Suckling "This has rich ripe-plum and summer-berry aromas ,as well as deeply earthy notes and fresh, spicy oak. The palate has deep, sweetly ripe fruit flavors with smooth-honed tannins that sit juicy and agile. Really delivers. A blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot and malbec. Drink over the next decade. Screw cap."

International Wine Challenge "Giver. Blackcurrant aromas with hint of mint. Juicy succulent palate, lifted acidity and juicy use of oak. Classic Margaret River".

Ned Goodwin (Halliday) "Hand-picked and macerated for 26 days including the fermentation period. 14 months in oak. The ‘18's at this address are sumptuous. impeccably ripe. Nothing sweet. Violet, pulpy blue fruit. Lovely astringency. Long, sappy and fine to drink now or over the medium term." (2018 Vintage)

The Wine Front - "Excellent. Blackberry, cherry, tobacco and ash, mint chocolate, cedar, flowers and dried herb. Medium-bodied, cherry pie, a bit of spice too, with earth, pencil and dried herb accents, grainy open-weave tannin, a cool and minerally feel, a long perfumed mixed berry finish to close." (2016 Vintage)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "A smooth, fine-textured red. Medium to full-bodied, it's less concentrated and robust than the Clementine, but it's nicely aromatic and supple, with a long, elegant finish." (2016 Vintage)

70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 13% Malbec.

Wine Spectator "A graceful and alluring blend which reveals its pedigree slowly, yet with great assurance. A focused core of both black and redcurrant fruit, which is still tightly coiled and reticent." (2012 Vintage)

James Halliday "Founders David Watson and wife Heather had spectacular success with the Cabernets he made in 1979 and the early '80s...With the advent of sons Stuart and Andrew (Stuart primarily responsible for winemaking), the estate has bounced back to pre-eminence. ....The top-end wines primarily come from the original Woodlands vineyard, where the vines are over 45 years old."

Evan Schwarten "Woodlands is one of Margaret River’s top producers, along with the likes of Cullen and Moss Wood. They produce some outstanding wines, including their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon."

When David and Heather Watson first established Woodlands in 1973, they were amongst the first six pioneers to plant vineyards in Margaret River and can certainly stake a claim in having helped establish the region's reputation for Cabernet Sauvignon. With the addition of a second vineyard site, purchased in 1998, the Watson family now have 25 hectares of vineyard in the Wilyabrup Valley, which are all maintained by hand using traditional and organic methods and without irrigation - a rarity in this arid corner of Australia.

A true family affair, son Stuart is the winemaker and brother Andrew is in charge of operations. Five red stars from Halliday, consistent excellent ratings for its wine and an "Outstanding" rating for the Cabernet Sauvignon from Langton's, identify Woodlands as one of the best producers in the region.

Woodlands ‘Margaret’ is sourced entirely from the Woodlands Vineyard. The Cabernet Sauvignon portion comes from a slope on the south of Woodlands that wraps around a 90-degree radius from east to north. The fruit on this slope receives a great deal of direct sunlight from morning to mid-afternoon, leading to rich full-bodied wines. The Merlot and Malbec plots that make up the remainder of ‘Margaret’ come from our west-facing slope of deep loam soil. This slope receives the most direct afternoon sunlight at Woodlands, and produces more exotic fruit characters in the finished wine.

Margaret 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 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc blends and Shiraz.

Located 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.

Cabernet Sauvignon is probably the most famous red wine grape variety on Earth. It is rivaled in this regard only by its Bordeaux stablemate Merlot, and its opposite number in Burgundy, Pinot Noir. From its origins in Bordeaux, Cabernet has successfully spread to almost every winegrowing country in the world.

Cabernet Sauvignon wines always seem to demonstrate common character traits: deep color, good tannin structure, moderate acidity and aromas of blackcurrant, tomato leaf, dark spices and cedarwood.

Used as frequently in blends as in varietal wines, Cabernet Sauvignon has a large number of common blending partners. Apart from the obvious Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the most prevalent of these are Malbec, Petit Verdot and Carmenere (the ingredients of a classic Bordeaux Blend), Shiraz (in Australia's favorite blend) and in Spain and South America, a Cabernet – Tempranillo blend is now commonplace.

People Choice Award 2023

Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot "...this is a cracker. Opaque maroon in colour, we have aromas of plums, chocolate, truffles, fleshy notes, bergamot and coffee grinds. Still very young and it really does need time. The palate is seductive and seamless with very fine tannins and juicy acidity. I’d be putting this aside for the next three to four years and then enjoying it over the following decade, over which period it will surely continue to improve."

Mike Bennie, Halliday Wine Companion "Beautiful aromatics starring blueberry, violet floral lift, a sniff of cassis, dried rosemary and dark chocolate. Supple on the palate with lush cassis and plum fruit characters squished through a sheath of light, suede tannin and gently spiked with dried herb and black peppery spice. Flavours linger with bright, cassis fruit and more of the spice, gently. Satisfying expression, refined, restrained, but vibrant. It's very good."

Stuart Knox, The Real Review "Bright ruby and purple tones in the glass. Plums and woody herbal aromatics. Medium bodied with supple plum fruit that glides through the core while hints of graphite and black olive tapenade linger underneath. Tannins are finely wrought through the length and the whole package is subtle and supple to the end."

Angus Hughson, Wine Pilot "I’ve got a bit of an apology to make to the Clare Valley – it has taken me a while to come around to the local Cabernet Sauvignon – too long. Yes these can be brooding monsters in tough vintages but when they are on song, they are so very good, and up there with the best shiraz from the region. This version is a powerhouse style that never loses its way with tremendous balance that will help it to drink well over the medium term. Bright deep ruby, it opens with deliciously pure cassis fruits with a strong Clare undertow of warm slate beautifully integrated with high quality oak. Great energy follows on the palate which is more in a mid-weight style before dense yet fine mouth-coating tannins take over to deliver a long and strong finish. Exceptional and will drink well for some time to come." (2020 vintage)

Ken Gargett, Tasting Book Ken Gargett "Dark magenta, the nose is alluring mix of licorice, black olives cassis, tobacca leaf, chocolate and coffee beans. The palate moves more to a sour cherry note. Very good grip here. Savoury in style, this is well structured with fine but firm tannis, and excellent lenght. The finish offers aniseed, five spice notes and more cassis." (2020 vintage)

Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion "Sandalwood, cocoa, plum and blackberry compote. In the mouth the wine is concentrated and dense, with a heated lift through the finish. This is a full wine, with weight and gravitas... chocolatey, spicy and moving to viscous. This will go very well in time, but for now, it remains a little frisky (and very fresh)." (2020 vintage)

Huon Hooke, The Real Review "Deep red/purple hue, with a strong crushed gumleaf aroma, tomato-leafy too, and the palate echoes this with an edgy and quite astringent taste, which includes some bitterness. This is raw, callow and strident, and demands cellaring." (2020 vintage)

Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion "Still in an awkward youthful stage, with the tannins appearing a touch too raspy and the palate not entirely harmonious. Never fear. It will get its act together. It already has all the elements in place: the mulberries, the cassis and currants, the baking spices and freshly rolled tobacco and sprinkling of herbs. It's medium bodied and refreshing but needs to go back into the cellar for a few more years. No doubt it will change the outcome. Cellar door only." (2019 vintage)

James Suckling "A bold and ripe red-plum and redcurrant nose with a herbal edge and leafy tones. Medium-bodied, bright and juicy with red-plum and redcurrant flavors." (2019 vintage)

Pikes is a prestigious winery in South Australia's Clare Valley, established in 1984 by Neil and Andrew Pike, whose viticultural roots go back to the late 1800s.
