Quite nice with boeuf daube ($16). Dark fruit but bright and refreshing — a day ago
Another excellent MT buy-- I could just drink this all day in the sun.
Lovely lemon zest and melon, bright acidity and dry finish. Light but persistent effervescence makes a truly delightful wine. — 4 months ago

See quite a few previous Delectable notes. Interesting back story about Fermoy Estate being served at the wedding of Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark to Sydney girl, Mary Donaldson. This is my last bottle. A deep dark crimson. A lovely nose of blackcurrant, eucalyptus and herbs. Palate of medium intensity showing those aromatics. A pretty good Margaret River Cabernet from the Wilyabrup district. Probably doesn’t get the credit it deserves being overshadowed by its more famous neighbours in Moss Wood, Woodlands, Vasse Felix and Cullen. — a month ago
Sipping Fine Wine
A nice Chenin Blanc from vineyards along the border of 2 sub-regions, pale lemon color with aromas of white fruits and wet stone. On the palate flavors of apple and peach, complex, lively acidity. Long finish ending with mineral and sweet honey character, should age a bit, but great now! Good value! — 5 days ago
