About The Wine

Cedary and cellarworthy this is the high watermark of Larry Cherubino's Cabernet range out of WA.

A range of vineyards in the Wilyabrup supply the fruit, and Larry supplies the expertise, harnessing some dense blackcurrant, earthy and spicy fruit with high quality oak.

It's got on eye on the future, with chalky, cedary tannins and penetrating length, but can be approached now with a decanter in hand and rare steak with a good marble score.

About Larry Cherubino

Larry Cherubino is one of the real superstar winemakers of Western Australia.

Sourcing fruit from established vineyards throughout Margaret River and Great Southern, Larry waves his wand to craft what is one of the most consistently high quality and comprehensive wine ranges in the country.

The wines all deliver bankable quality at every price point. The acclaim from Australia's wine media will tell you just that.

As James Halliday said himself, "The range and quality of his wines is extraordinary, the prices irresistible."

From The Producer

Aromas of red earth with a compote of berries and fine nuances of dried bay leaf. There is a freshness to this wine that is the perfect foil to the dusty earthy notes. The oak is gentle with soft tannins and spice notes with a long complex finish.

"Super deep, rich aromas of raspberries, dark cherries, blackcurrants and plums here with attractive cedary oak also in the mix. The palate delivers such depth and effortlessly rich, smooth dark-berry flavors fill the mouth, amid velvety, ribbon-like tannins. Silky and beautifully resolved. Drink or hold. Screw cap." - James Suckling (JamesSuckling.com_)

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
