Like most Margaret River wineries, Flametree is best known for its chardonnay, cabernet and cabernet blends. If you are a regular here at the ‘Fo, you’ve seen the chardonnay and cabernet from several vintages. We’ve now made the cab merlot another regular, with this being our second vintage of it. Flametree has thrown in small bits of malbec and petit verdot as well, making this truly a Bordeaux-style blend. It’s full of ripe fruit like blackberry, cassis and red currants, all supported by hints of cocoa, earthiness and fine tannins. You can drink this the moment it arrives at your door or try to be patient for up to 10 years. Good luck with that!
