Violette

2019 Margaret River Red Blend

The Windows Estate Violette is a captivating red blend from the picturesque Margaret River region, known for its diverse microclimates that contribute to the wine's complexity. This 2019 vintage showcases a beautiful deep red color that hints at its rich character. On the palate, the wine exudes a pleasing full-bodied presence, balanced by a high acidity that brightens the flavor profile and enhances its freshness. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with delightful notes of dark berries weaving through layers of nuanced spices and subtle oak influences. The tannins are notable, providing structure yet remaining smooth enough to create a satisfying finish. As a dry wine, it pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, making it an excellent choice for both casual gatherings and special occasions.

Western Australia
Western Australia

Fans of Aussie wine will be familiar with Western Australia's beautifully complex Bordeaux, Burgundy and Rhône varietals and blends. Lying south of Perth around the southwestern tip of the country, this relatively small area produces just five percent of Australia's wine. But when it comes to quality, Western Australia punches well above its weight. Well-known small sub-regions within Western Australia include Margaret River, Frankland River and the Blackwood Valley, where the dynamic Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs and Rieslings are distinctly European in character.
