Since 1989 the cabernet has been augmented with the floral bright fruit of cabernet franc and the darker robust black fruits of petit verdot. The palate delivers with a gentle restraint yet there is power deep within. The chalky tannins define a long and focussed finish.

Vino CBDB Chenin Blanc\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CBDB (Chenin Blanc Dynamic Blend) is the cult-classic heart of the L.A.S. Vino range. While it started as a blend years ago, it has evolved into a 100% Chenin Blanc statement piece, though the name remains a tribute to its \"dynamic\" origin: a wild, untamed, and Demeter-certified biodynamic vineyard in Yallingup. This is a site where vines sprawl without trellises and livestock roam freely - it’s about as far from a manicured estate as you can get.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 release captures all that raw energy and coastal grit. Nic Peterkin’s approach is meticulous but hands-off: the fruit is hand-picked and cold-pressed as whole bunches, with a portion left on skins for 24 hours to pull out extra texture and aromatic punch. It’s fermented with wild yeast in a mix of mature French oak and clay amphorae, spending 11 months on lees with fortnightly stirring to build a serious, \"chewy\" mouthfeel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy skipping malolactic fermentation, Nic ensures the wine keeps its electric zip. The flavour profile is a wild ride - think pink grapefruit and lime meeting more exotic hits of passionfruit, coconut, and a touch of \"pavlova\" sweetness. It’s a wine that walks its own path: high-energy, full-flavoured, and possessing just the right amount of phenolic grip. If you want to see why Chenin is the \"other\" great white of Margaret River, this is the benchmark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2025-l-a-s-vino-cbdb-chenin-blanc\" title=\"2025 L.A.S.

Vino’s 'Albino Pinot' has always been a bit of a shape-shifter - not quite a white, not quite a rosé, but drinking with the weight and class of a high-end Chardonnay. Sourced from one of the last remaining Pinot blocks in Wilyabrup (planted way back in 1980), it’s a wine that has always occupied its own unique space in Margaret River.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 release, however, is a massive leap forward in terms of complexity. Nic Peterkin has done something truly wild here, using yeasts sourced from native Australian flowers - specifically red-flowering gum and Rottnest Island tea tree - to kick off portions of the fermentation. It’s a global first that adds a whole new dimension to the wine's DNA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA blend of 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay, the wine was fermented and aged across a mix of French barriques and clay amphorae. The result is absolutely, unequivocally. While you still get that \"strawberries and cream\" charm, there’s an incredible floral lift and a salty sea-spray edge that makes it feel much more adult. The mid-palate is creamy and textural, backed by a refined, dry finish that really rewards a bit of attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is easily the most complex Albino Pinot to date and comfortably one of the best rosés in the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2025-l-a-s-vino-albino-pinot\" title=\"2025 L.A.S.

Vino Pirate Blend\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNic Peterkin has never been one to follow the Margaret River rulebook. The Pirate Blend is the ultimate proof of that - a trio of Portuguese varieties (Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cao, and Sousao) inspired by Nic’s time making wine in Portugal. We’ve tracked this wine since its first release, and it always feels a bit wild and untamed, even though there’s some seriously savvy winemaking behind the scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 season in Yallingup was a beauty, with warm, even weather giving these 40-year-old dry-grown vines plenty of clarity. Nic puts in the hard yards with hand-picking and berry sorting before giving the wine 18 months in barrique to knit together. It’s a long stint in oak, but it’s exactly what’s needed to soften the edges of such dark, concentrated fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s loaded with plum compote, blueberry, and dark chocolate, backed by sweet spices like cinnamon and clove. The tannins are silky and the finish has an exotic, cocoa-like grip that hangs around. It stands completely apart from the usual Cabernet-heavy landscape of the region, and it’s easily one of the most characterful reds we've seen this year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant to see what is on the cutting edge of Margaret River?
