Rosily Vineyard The Cartographer Margaret River Cabernet Merlot 2023 - 12 Bottles

Product Description

Winery Overview & Region

Rosily Vineyard is an estate winery based in Margaret River, WA. The vineyard was first planted in the mid-1990s using cuttings from nearby renowned vineyards. All wines are estate-grown, organically farmed (certified since 2017) and aim to reflect the unique coastal terroir of Wilyabrup.

Blend & Winemaking

“The Cartographer” is Rosily’s Bordeaux-style blend, combining Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot (and likely Cabernet Franc or Petit Verdot depending on vintage) to offer varietal complexity, structure and balance. Winemaking is handled carefully to maintain freshness and regional character rather than over-extracting for weight.

Tasting Notes (Based on Regional & Producer Style)

• Aroma: Blackcurrant, dark plum and cassis with possible hints of herb, cedar or tobacco, redolent of Margaret River’s classic Cabernet-based blends. 

• Palate: Medium to full body, structured yet smooth tannins, layered dark fruit and a refined finish. Good balance of ripe fruit and savoury complexity.

Key Characteristics

• Balanced Bordeaux-style blend from a boutique estate
