Voyager Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (Formerly Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot) 1996
Very classy, polished wine whose deep, dark small berry flavours are knit with sweet fine-grained cedary oak and lifted by pungent earthy, dusty and lightly herby complexity. Elegant, very stylish, with vibrant small berries, bright acids, tight-knit ripe tannins and Medoc-like undergrowth influences.

Winery
Voyager Estate
With a string of consistently fine wines across its entire portfolio, Voyager Estate is one of Margaret River's elite producers. It has achieved this without emulating the styles of other local makers, evolving its own stamp and signature of elegance and savoury qualities which its southerly location in the region encourages
Its estate brings traditional South African Cape Dutch architecture to the region and it certainly provides one of the region's finest visitor experiences. Voyager is steadily increasing the number of wines it produces, working through a series of 'project wines' to refine what eventually become its flagship wines.
