LIRICA is a tiny-production, single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from a 54-year-old dry-grown vineyard in the heart of Wilyabrup. A collaboration between viticulturist Lee Haselgrove and winemaker Rob Gherardi, it is an intentionally and unashamedly site-driven wine, crafted to express the remarkable character of one extraordinary vineyard.

The inaugural, foundation vintage. Just 2,032 bottles produced.

Planted in 1974 from heritage Houghton Cabernet Sauvignon selections originating from Moss Wood, the LIRICA vineyard occupies just 0.85 hectares within the heart of Wilyabrup. Dry grown, cane pruned and naturally low yielding, the old vines produce small crops of exceptional concentration and balance, with deep root systems drawing from classic Forest Loam soils over clay.

The vineyard's gentle easterly aspect encourages slow, even ripening, allowing tannin maturity and flavour development to align naturally. It is this combination of site, vine age and meticulous viticulture that forms the foundation of LIRICA — a wine that speaks first and foremost of place.
