Brand: Cape Mentelle. Since 1976 the iconic Marri tree line has featured on the Cape Mentelle labels. These stalwart trees filter the summer breezes, protecting the vines and ensuring optimal ripening conditions for this range of fresh, vibrant wines. This wine has an elegant bouquet with red and dark berry fruits surrounded by supple tannins and neatly integrated oak.

History: 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.
