At first glance, you might think that this is just another terrific Cab. Merlot from Margaret River. However, tasting the LTCf reveals a wine which is stylistically different from the norm.
 
Deep red with bouquet of berry fruits. Concentrated ripe red cherry and dark plum flavours restrained and well integrated cedary oak characters, ultra-smooth, velvety texture and supple, fine grained tannins. This wine combines richness and depth of flavour with the structure and tannins to make it a cellaring proposition while having an immediate approachability that makes it pretty hard to resist even on release.
 
What the critics think
2004 – “Light to medium bodied; tending austere, with some olive, earthy notes along with blackcurrant; subtle oak.” Rating 89/100. 
James Halliday – Australian Wine Companion 2008
 
“Pierro cabernet comes from Willyabrup, the very best place in Margaret River for Bordeaux red varieties. Always a more savoury Willyabrup cabernet blend than some of its illustrious neighbors’, Pierro continues in that mould in 2001. It has black and redcurrant fruit on the nose along with clean earthy, herbal and light smoky-barrel aromas. A marvelous wine that is so close to the top it almost doesn’t matter.”
Ralph Kyte-Powell and Huon Hooke - The Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide 2004/05
