Cape Mentelle, Sauvignon Blanc Semillion, 2021

Margaret River is one of the most isolated wine regions in the world and is located in Western Australia.

The region benefits from a Mediterranean climate, with warm summers cooled by afternoon sea breezes and mild winters, making it ideal for growing top-quality grapes.

Cape Mentelle is one of Margaret River's ‘founding five' wineries established by wine industry pioneer David Hohnen (of Cloudy Bay fame) and his brothers Mark and Giles in 1970.

Starting small with just 16ha of vines, David experimented with grape varieties including Shiraz, Cabernet, Zinfandel, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. Many of these original plantings are the source of the distinctive wines that have come to characterise Cape Mentelle. Today, the winery is a benchmark for quality in Margaret River.

Cape Mentelle takes a minimal approach towards this classic Margaret River blend. The aim is to preserve as much fruit intensity and regional character as possible, whilst providing a full flavoured distinctive white wine.
