Description
The Modern Cabernet is Voyager Estate’s step into the here and now - a bright, lifted, medium-weight Cabernet that speaks less of power and more of polish. It’s a fresh take on a classic Margaret River staple, dialled in for earlier drinking without compromising detail or depth.
Chief Winemaker Tim Shand has steered this wine into more accessible territory, focusing on fragrance, finesse and drinkability. The core comes from two standout blocks on the Voyager vineyard, bringing together bright red fruit, mulberry and blackcurrant with fine tannins and gentle oak spice. There’s a flicker of graphite and bay leaf to keep the edges interesting, but at its heart, this is Cabernet with clarity - juicy, composed and complete.
A Cabernet you can actually open and enjoy right now - but give it a few years and it’ll reward your patience too. Perfect with roast beef or mushroom ragu and built to reset expectations of what modern Margaret River Cabernet can be.
95 points
"First poured, a ghastly apparition appeared – as if this had been placed in a corset and cinched tight. In a vinous sense, that means decanting or letting this beauty breathe in the glass. It has all the varietal appeal of Margs: its shapely tannins, supple and ever-so-slightly grainy and its savouriness. Very little oak impact (15% new French barriques), other than offering a complementary light seasoning of cedary spices."
