The McHenry Hohnen family has been involved with zinfandel since the variety was first introduced to the Margaret River region in 1972. The Rocky Road vineyard lies close to the headwaters of the Chapman Brook near Witchcliffe in the southern Margaret River region. With a northerly aspect, the vines enjoy long days of sunshine, moderated by the vineyard's southern location. Vineyard management embraces sustainable 'old school' practices that mark a return to methods used before the development of intensive, industrial agriculture. | |

Tasting note |
A fruit box of lifted aromas jumps from the glass followed by blackberries, raspberry coulis and red boiled confection for a seductive bouquet. Delving deeper sweet watermelon and black liquorice are revealed. This fruit driven number is framed by super-fine tannins and Satsuma plum acidity.
