Every now and then, a wine makes my heart skip a beat. It's the confluence of all the elements – the aromas, the flavours, how it feels, how it makes me feel, everything perfect poised. And of course, the X-factor. The magic stuff, which can't be decoded. Take a bow the wine team at Devil's Lair. A stalwart producer yet flying under the radar when it really shouldn't. Here's the reason why – this is the epitome of elegant Margaret River cabernet. A harmonious blend of mulberries and cassis, baking spices, and cedary oak which is superbly integrated. The mid-weighted palate is finely tuned with beautiful, shapely tannins and acidity stretching out to a lingering finish. Devil's Lair is on a roll, get onboard. Although, bittersweet as I wish the wonderful Simon Robertson (who passed in 2024), its long-time viticulturist could have witnessed the success of this wine.
