Wine Summary Image

With a unique combination of climate (maritime), geography and geology, Devil’s Lair celebrates wines of great clarity, delicacy of fruit and elegant structure. The philosophy of Devil’s Lair is to make wines that define the region, respect the variety and above all, make complex, interesting wines. The Devil’s Lair Cabernet Sauvignon gains complexity from the terroir of individual vineyards and the winemakers handle and blend each batch of fruit to make a wine that best represents the Devil’s Lair style.

Gravelly, fine-grained tannins are a hallmark of a great Devil's Lair Cabernet. Skins slowly soften during fermentation and maturation for two years in the finest oak, giving the wine a dark core of fruit, wrapped tightly in a fine cloak of chocolaty tannin.

Expert Reviews

Bright crimson; an extremely elegant and fine cabernet, with fruit, oak and tannins in perfect balance; the medium-bodied palate is very long, the blackcurrant and black olive fruit lingering in the mouth long after the wine has been swallowed. Top gold Margaret River Wine Show ’10 in one of the blue ribbon (71 wines) classes.

Rating 96 - Drink by 2029 James Halliady, Australian Wine Companion (JAN/2011)

Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

Colour

Good depth of colour with vibrant purple hues.

Aroma

Layered and complex. A compote of fragrant fruit florals typical of Margaret River. Hints of cigar-box and melted dark chocolate.

Palate

Classic Cabernet cassis sits alongside smokey spicy oak. The palate has depth of flavour - roasted cocoa beans and freshly picked blackcurrants dominate the mid palate. The tannins from the Merlot component provides silky texture and length. This wine is concentrated yet elegant. A classic Margaret River wine from a classic vintage.

Winery Profile

Brand Profile Image

Devil’s Lair is fortunate to be able to tread its own path, unrestrained by tradition, with a sense of wisdom that comes from a strong bond with an ancient land. It’s the intuition of a talented team, the freedom to do things differently and the subtlety of the soils that makes Devil’s Lair wines respected for their great clarity, delicate fruit flavours and elegant structure.Lying deep in the south of Margaret River, beyond where most tourists venture, stand towering karri trees resilient and proud, protecting a hidden cave they call the Devil’s Lair.It’s after this unassuming and somewhat shy cave that Devil’s Lair is named. One of Australia’s most significant archaeological sites, the Devil’s Lair cave holds evidence of human life nearly 50,000 years ago and some of the earliest records of Australian life.The Devil’s Lair winemaking philosophy is to be meticulous, to continually question and challenge, and to refine a winemaking style that is as much about intuition as it is about science.Ben Miller and Simon Robertson are joined by a talented team of winemakers, viticulturists and staff – local and afar – who support the winemaking process right through to the point at which it reaches your glass.
