Title:

Cape Mentelle was established in 1970 and was one of the first wineries in the Margaret River, Western Australia. Cape Mentelle pioneered many of the region’s renowned wine styles. Creating the winery’s tradition of pioneering spirit and steadfast commitment to excellence, an innovative young team is taking up the challenge to be simply the best. Robert Mann, grandson of the great winemaker and innovator Jack Mann, has been the Senior Winemaker at Cape Mentelle since 2005. The maritime influence of the Indian Ocean ensures even temperatures providing consistently good conditions for producing very high quality grapes and some of Australia’s finest wines.

The citrus rind and grapefuit lead the palate to an overall fine yet textural journey. Cape Mentelle 100% Chardonnay has this distinctive minerally line too, apparent with focussed refreshing acidity. Faint nuances of soft nougat and cashews also add to what is a harmonious balance and an elegant and length finish. The palate is full and rich with flavors of bread crust, pudding, candied nectarine with notes of almond, and pecan. While its aroma is quince, apple and pear compote with cinnamon toast, it is very expressive to the nose.

FOOD PAIRING

It is best paired with roasted fowl, mushroom and cream, lobster and goose terrine. Cellaring can take 5 to 10 years.
