Description

A beautifully different style of Margaret River Cabernet here from the effervescent Josephine Perry.

There are few, if any, other winemakers in Margaret River that would dare release their Cabernet Sauvignon without any new oak, but that is precisely what Jo chooses for her expression.

It's about fruit first and foremost, Jo trusting the vineyard and her instincts on when to pick to ensure that all structure in the wine is derived from the grape rather than an oak tree.

It's a gloriously elegant, graceful style of Cabernet - lifted and precise.

What is the opposite of value for money?

I have been buying mixed boxes from DD for years and have always been happy. Opened this up with dinner and literally stopped and had to open another bottle. So bad.

Expressive Cab Sauv

Purity first comes to mind while drinking this delicious Cab Sauv. Blue fruits hit in a very smooth way. No big Cabernet monster hides in this bottle. Tasty, elegant and affordable, all the way from WA.

100% good old Cabernet Sauvignon from our little dry grown organic block Yungarra Estate.

Hand picked, destemmed into large concrete egg. On skins in the egg for one month. Then basket pressed & aged to perfection in seasoned French oak barriques. Only racked once and sulphured at bottling. No additives, fining, nor filtration to express the wonders of the land.

Dormilona

Josephine Perry is one of the most exciting and interesting producers in Margaret River. Her Dormilona label is setting a new tone for the region.

A self-confessed 'lazy-bones' winemaker, Jo is low-intervention in the winery, instead focusing her energies on the quality of fruit that she brings in the winery.

She uses only organically and biodynamically farmed fruit from high-quality vineyards across Margaret River and the Swan Valley and is bringing an alternative styling to the hero varieties of the west.

These are natural wines with flair and originality. From vineyard to glass, Jo handcrafts each wine with love and tender hands. An authentic producer who's rightfully gaining plenty of attention.

Jo Perry and her fur baby, Humphrey Dormilona

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.

Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.

What that means for you:

- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate

Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.

**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
