5 Star Winery - James Halliday

"Halliday Wine Companion - Australian Winery of the Year 2022 & 2023"

The Real Review, Huon Hooke "Light straw-yellow hue, with a gently herbal, nutty barrel-ferment and spicy sauvignon blanc fruit bouquet, showing more varietal character on palate than nose. It's intense and bright, lively and full of character, much more than simple varietal fruit, although it is recognisable as sauvignon blanc. An excellent attempt at a white Bordeaux style."

Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion "...More volume and density of flavour than the Burnside (neither here nor there qualitatively, simply an observation), this is sensational. Utterly."

James Suckling "This has aromas of grapefruit, lime zest, green apples and fennel. Crunchy and bright with a medium body, clear and transparent fruit and mineral undertones."

Saint Wine "Now under the sole stewardship of Murray McHenry the drive has intensified to create wines that are supported by a complex and diversified environment, a natural interdependence that creates specificity that cannot be replicated. A focus on single vineyard wines crafted by head winemaker Japo Dalli Cani delivers a heightened experience to the consumer expression of regionality and purity that underpins the McHenry Hohnen ethos."

Founded 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 1970s. 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.

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 high quality Semillon-Sauvignon 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.
