The Brookland Valley Verse 1 Margaret River Cabernet Merlot 2024 is a benchmark expression of the elegance and power for which this region is famed. Deep red at its core with a purple rim, the nose is lifted and complex, brimming with bay leaf, cassis, plum, dark chocolate and cigar box—a classic aromatic profile that showcases the pedigree of this signature blend.

On the palate, vibrant red berry fruit flows seamlessly into vanillin oak and toasted spice, while fine, supple tannins provide polish and structure. Medium-bodied yet layered, the wine delivers impressive balance and length, finishing savoury and refined. Produced by Brookland Valley, the acclaimed James Halliday Winery of the Year and a prestigious 5 Red Star-rated estate, this wine reflects meticulous craftsmanship and the region’s classic style.

The 2023 vintage was a standout award-winner at the Margaret River Wine Show, and the 2024 release continues the tradition, bringing poise, drinkability and depth to the table. Ideal with rosemary roast lamb, mushroom risotto, or a grilled portobello burger, its harmonious structure ensures versatility with both red meats and vegetarian fare.
