The Margaret River wine region, located in the southwest corner of Western Australia, is one of the country's most prestigious and internationally acclaimed wine areas. Benefiting from a Mediterranean climate with strong maritime influence, the region enjoys a long, consistent growing season ideal for producing premium wines. Cabernet Sauvignon is the standout red, known for its power, structure, and elegance, often blended with Merlot in a Bordeaux style.
Chardonnay is equally celebrated, offering richness, fine acidity, and subtle oak integration. Margaret River is also famous for its crisp, aromatic Sauvignon Blanc–Semillon blends, which display vibrancy and freshness. With a strong focus on quality, sustainability, and estate-grown fruit, Margaret River combines exceptional wines with stunning coastal landscapes, luxury cellar doors, gourmet food experiences, and a thriving wine tourism culture.
The Hippie Cabernet Merlot is a beautiful wine sourced from a blend of Margaret River and Blackwood Valley fruit. It is clearly varietal, leafy, medium bodied red showing its real style.
The Hippie Shiraz is a beautiful wine sourced from a blend of Margaret River and Blackwood Valley fruit. This is an elegant cool climate wine. Showing peppery and leafy notes on the nose. It is a light to medium boded wine with a dry palate.
Grant Burge Pearl Chardonnay from Margaret River has intense and regionally distinctive aromatics of each, nectarine and grapefruit, alongside brioche and grilled hazelnut derived from fermentation in oak barrels.The palate is bright yet silky with more stone fruits flavours and a hint of lemon drops. Some fresh acidity gives this Chardonnay great length and balance.
Vibrant purple in colour, with a brilliant red rim, the aroma is of bold redcurrant and cranberry notes with a touch of dried herbs. Plum, blackberry and black olive flavours drive the wine with a lovely soft and fleshy structure. Drinking well now and will continue to do so for up to five years from vintage.
Evans & Tate Classic Shiraz has layers of red fruit with dark chocolate nuances further enhanced by subtle sweet oak characters. The long and flavoursome finish is well supported by powder-fine juicy tannins.
