Xanadu The Wine Society Special Selection Margaret River 2022

Red Wine from Australia - Western Australia
3.666666700 star rating 3 Reviews
We are delighted to have worked with Xanadu`s award-winning winemaker Glenn Goodall to craft this smart, focused red, exclusive to Society members, at a great price. From Margaret River, Western Australia`s cabernet central, the 2022 vintage is a blend of 95% cabernet sauvignon for body, fruit, tannin and structure, and 5% petit verdot for added upholstery and a touch of spice. The long, perfect autumn has yielded a gorgeous red with bewitching cassis, plum and blueberry notes, rounded out by time in 25% new oak barriques. You won`t need to wait too long to enjoy its youthful side, but give it time to evolve, and it will. A model of Margaret River finesse, and exceptional value for money. Drink from 2024 to 2031. 13.9%

Xanadu

Sitting among and the equal of Margaret River’s finest wineries, Xanadu has existed since 1977 when it was established by Dr John Lagan. Taking advantage of the area’s Mediterranean climate, tempered by maritime influences from the Indian Ocean, he was a pioneer of winemaking in this part of Australia. In 2005 the winery was bought by the Rathbone family of Yering Station and Mount Langhi Ghiran, and they have taken on the 65 hectares of vines with a huge commitment to high-quality winemaking and an emphasis on getting it right in the vineyard. There has been huge investment since the Rathbone’s took over. The name of the estate, incidentally, comes from Dr Lagan’s love of the poetry of Samuel Taylor Coleridge and references Kubla Khan’s capital, and pleasure-dome, Xanadu. 2018 was perhaps the best Margaret River vintage in decades and so we took the opportunity to work with Xanadu to blend a very special wine, exclusively for The Wine Society.
