Wild Cape Chardonnay
Wild Cape in Focus: Chardonnay
Photographer Andrew Semark describes the Wild Cape Chardonnay photo ‘Glimmer’ as “power and beauty”, which perfectly encapsulates the richness of Margaret River Chardonnay.
Senior Winemaker Matt Byrne believes this richness is matched in the Wild Cape Chardonnay and said: “This wine showcases the power of flavour in Chardonnay that Margaret River is renowned for. Complexity too – with toasty, classy oak which sits below the fruit and savoury characters from wild ferment and yeast lees.”
This is a powerful Margaret River Chardonnay with ripe, fleshy stone fruit and melon flavours. Apricot, peach and tropical fruits are balanced and matched with wild barrel fermented elements of malt, cashew nut and fresh toast. A long, intriguing and massively flavoursome wine.

Adventure Awaits
Wild Cape is a collaboration between Ocean Photographer Andrew Semark and Evans & Tate Senior Winemaker Matt Byrne.
The vision behind the Wild Cape range is to celebrate the raw beauty of Western Australia’s South West and showcase the three varieties that Margaret River is so well-known for – Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Enhanced by the dramatic images on the Wild Cape labels, Wild Cape captures the essence of Margaret River.
Wild Cape is available online or at your local independent store.
