Flametree
Flametree makes a fine stage for experienced Margaret River winemaker Cliff Royle to strut his stuff Đ sourcing parcels from a number of different sub-regions and varieties. While it focused largely on Margaret River, Flametree also sources shiraz from Frankland River. Royle's style is generously flavoured but laid-back and polished, so Flametree typically delivers finesse and elegance and with that, longevity. The sub-regional selection of Wallcliffe chardonnay, the SRS, is a perfect example.
