Located in the heart of Western Australia’s renowned Margaret River wine region, the Pierro locality, owned and managed by Dr Mike Peterkin, has a viticultural pedigree second to none. Besides making award-winning Chardonnay of distinctive character, Mike also produced the first Semillon Sauvignon Blanc blend in Australia. The Pierro reds are now among the very best in the region.

Pierro Reserve Cabernet Merlot 2018
Mea Culpa. I most often think of Pierro as a Chardonnay producer, first and foremost, which is kind of counter-intuitive given they are situated in the heart of Willyabrup.
Nice style of wine here. Not showy, not overly tannic, more a smooth ride of ripe red fruits, biscuit oak, a little wafer of choc-mint. Medium-bodied, good flavour, mainly in the red fruit zone, a light honey sheen and glycerol feel, even flow and easy charm, yet a bit more than that too. Finish is good, nice and long, with an under-stated but confident feel. Excellent. More your subtle claret style, I reckon.
