Along the Margaret River, the peak summer & lowwinter temperatures are moderated by extra cloud cover and ocean winds. This results in a longer, cooler ripening period; retaining higher natural acidity while allowing tannin ripeness in the seeds and skins. This wine is pale straw in color and has aromas of freshly cut lime, nectarine, and peach. On the palate the complex minerality creates great length and textural finish with lingering nuttiness.

Located in the Padthaway Valley which is comprised of rich Terra Rosa soils. The estate vineyard benefits from excellent sun exposure producing grapes of optimum flavour, colour and tannin development. This wine is a light yellowwith a pale straw hue and has a classic nose of lemon, fresh stone fruit and melon. The palate is clean and fresh with mineral characters under- pinning ripe pineapple and lime flavours. Think outside the box and pair this wine with some fresh avocado and tuna tapas.

Jacobs Creek has a rich history beginning all the way back in 1837 when Bavarian-born Johan Gramp arrived at Reeves Point on Kangaroo Island. He missed the taste of wine from his homeland so much that he decided to start growing grapes. This wine features a stimulating bouquet of grapefruit and tropical fruits with a backdrop of fresh cut beans. It is teeming with sweet tropical and grapefruit flavours with a crisp and perfectly balanced finish. A fantastic seafood wine, try this one with lobster caprese skewers.

Get an early start to summer by enjoying this wine with some creamy seafood chowder.
