Region:


Frankland River

Often overshadowed by its more famous neighbor, Margaret River, the Frankland River region of Western Australia produces some exceptional wines. Flying well under the radar for many years, this fantastic region is home to some of Australia's oldest vines. Crisp Riesling and peppery Shiraz, full of fruit-forward flavors—but without the overpowering influence of oak—thrive in this region with its cool nights and long, warm days. In Frankland River, you will also find old favorites like Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.
