Xanadu The Wine Society Special Selection Margaret River 2023

Red Wine from Australia - Western Australia
0 star rating 0 Reviews
Juicy, spiced, dark-fruited and complex, with a youthful charm but also great potential for cellaring, this Xanadu is a blend of 95% cabernet sauvignon and 5% petit verdot. The cabernet provides body, cassis, plum and bay-leaf character and tannic structure, while petit verdot brings plushness, spice and an enticing earthiness. The combination offers a huge amount of style and personality at the price point. This is an outstanding option for short to mid-term keeping and for enjoying the wonderful character of Margaret River cabernet. Drink 2025 to 2031. 14%

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.
