1 x 75cl. THE PRODUCER Margaret River is a beautiful area - the coastline of beautiful beaches and fabulous surf rolling in attracted surfers long before it had anything to do with wine; the karri, marri and blackbutt forest attracted those interested in the peace and calm of the land. It was also assessed as perfect for growing grapes for quality wine, and Dr Bill Pannell was one of the first to buy and plant at the northern end of the area in 1969. Quality showed in the early days and the 1975 Cabernet Sauvignon was one of the first wines that had the wine trade sitting up and taking notice of this new, slowly burgeoning area three hours south of Perth. The wines that followed were a tale of beautiful succulent fruit and elegant balance. Current owners Keith and Clare Mugford arrived as winemaker in 1979 and slowly took control and ownership over the next six years, producing a range of wines celebrated for their quality and consistency, including this 2014 red wine.
