Description
Domaine Naturaliste's finest cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon from the heart of Margaret River. A single vineyard selection of the prized “Houghton clone” planted in 1978 and then another section in 1982. These fully mature and majestic vines are some of the oldest in the region, planted by the second wave of winegrowing pioneers. The gravelly soils of the vineyard are flanked by the dominant native hard wood trees named Jarrah. Jarrah trees are a favourable and exact biological indicator that the site is ideally matched to Cabernet Sauvignon.
96pts Houn Hooke, Real Review "..briary, dried-herb and nori aromas, overlying dark fruits - blackberry and mulberry. This is an impressive, full-bodied cabernet, with masses of firming tannins that provide shape and structure to the profile. Long, long finish. A very serious, concentrated cab..."
ABOUT DOMAINE NATURALISTE
The wines of Domaine Naturaliste are made by owner Bruce Dukes, who makes wines for "a handful" of producers around Margaret River. The wines at this estate are astoundingly clear in their style and show an abundance of personality, which fits hand in hand with the expression of site and terroir. The Morus Cabernet is a a dense, muscular style of Cabernet, which, since the 2020 vintage, is sealed under screw cap. This has done wonders (I believe) for the freshness of the wine, and I am very excited to see these same wines in a decade to really get a handle on the impact of the closure. Owner/winemaker Bruce Dukes purchased the 35-hectare Wilyabrup vineyard in 2018. - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate

What The Critics Say
"A wine that twists and turns with new nuances and riches at every turn, before it comes together and straightens to its long finish. This is the pure essence of Margaret River Cabernet with loads of dense concentrated black fruits coated with subtle blue fruit fragrances. The palate reveals layers of chocolate and blackcurrant with nuanced black olive and graphite showing a little oyster shell minerality. As it breathes, it opens revealing more. A super wine."

ABOUT THIS BRAND
Domaine Naturaliste
Domaine Naturaliste is now seen as one of the top wineries in Australia. This year has seen Bruce Dukes lift even further as he continues to collect gongs around the world. “Bruce Dukes is wholly talented, and while he makes high-quality acclaimed wines for his own estate – Domaine Naturaliste. His winemaking style is one of fresh, pure fruit over obvious or intrusive winemaking artifact, and the wines routinely possess a polish and eminent drinkability.” - Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate. The vineyard is located next to Margaret River and has a maritime climate, intermediate to that of Bordeaux and Napa Valley. The vine roots explore the ironstone rich gravelly soil, which sits above a highly permeable ironstone cap rock, resulting in a well drained and healthy soil. It is the intersection of soil, climate and vine which provides this extraordinary fruit. Each of their wines have a distinct story to tell and are considered by Halliday to be “Examples of deep-thinking, intelligent and experienced winemakers.
