About this wine

Houghton Gladstones Cabernet Sauvignon, Margaret River

The Gladstones Cabernet Sauvignon is named after Dr. John Gladstone whose viticultural research enabled plantings throughout Western Australia. A full-bodied single vineyard sourcing, from the hallowed marl and alluvials of Margaret River’s Wilyabrup sub-region. Dignitaries Cullen and Vasse Felix, but a stone’s throw away. Bay leaf, scrub, graphite and cassis unwind across a forcefield of tannic refinement, well positioned oak and saline acidity. A regal wine, Mike Bennie at the Wine Front opines that it ‘stretches long and luxurious, supple and flowing’, lauding it with a 95. Huon Hooke concurs with the same score. Inimitably of place, this is a classic unfolding that, Bennie goes on, ‘enthusiasts should line up for.’
