Tasting Notes

A very floral nose of dried rose, violet, ripe raspberry and purple fruits with bay leaf and cassis. The palate has great energy with intense forest berry and blackboard, dried fennel and bright acidity, leaving a very long impression.
A warm ’24’ vintage has gifted a very cellar worthy La Gauche!

Winemaking Notes

Inspired by the traditional blends of Bordeaux’s ‘Left Bank,’ where Cabernet Sauvignon is the predominant variety, we celebrate our interpretation of this style in the Yarra Valley. This wine is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot, and 1% Cabernet Franc.

Awards & Reviews

96+ Points – Halliday Wine Companion 2026

“Medium bodied, concentrated and elegant with ripe, fine-grained tannins that’ll ensure this will age slowly and gracefully over the next decade or longer. A bargain for a Yarra cabernet of this quality.”
– Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion

Viticultural Notes

The fruit was destemmed as whole berries and fermented on skins for 14 days in open-top vats. It was then pressed into French oak (10% new) for malolactic conversion, spending 10 months in oak before bottling.
