Domaine Naturaliste Rebus Cabernet

Domaine Naturaliste’s Rebus Cabernet Sauvignon is a true reflection of the Margaret River region, delivering a wine that balances tradition with modern winemaking finesse. Since its first release in 2012, Rebus has become a favourite among wine lovers across Australia, offering a complex yet approachable expression of Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2022 vintage showcases a beautiful array of aromas, starting with glazed cherries, violets, and graphite. These lift to reveal a palate rich with flavours of red currants, cacao nibs, and plum skin, offering a seamless balance of fruit and subtle spice. On entry, the wine presents bristling tannins, which evolve into a core of liquorice, blackberries, and slate. The finish is long, persistent, and mineral, continually changing with each sip.

Growing Season
The 2022-2023 growing season in Margaret River was exceptional, with gentle, sun-drenched days providing the ideal conditions for fruit that was aromatic, fresh, and beautifully balanced. The resulting grapes exhibited natural acidity and ultra-fine tannins — hallmarks of a standout vintage.

Winemaking Process
The fruit for Rebus was carefully fermented and matured separately. After 12 months in oak, 40% of which was new French barriques, the wine was blended to achieve the ideal balance of fruit and structure. The oak influence, sourced primarily from the Allier and Centre of France, adds complexity without overwhelming the fruit character.

Cellaring Potential
While Rebus is drinking beautifully now, it has the structure and depth to age gracefully for up to 10 years. Over time, the wine will continue to develop, evolving into a more complex and nuanced expression of Cabernet Sauvignon.

AWARDS

95pts Halliday Wine Companion “All the fabulous varietal and regional aromas plus flavours are on full display thanks to an excellent vintage. A neat combo of violets, mulberries, blackcurrants and all manner of baking spices, especially cinnamon with mocha, licorice and coffee grinds. Full-bodied, ripe, sweet fruit floods the palate, so too lots of cedary oak, and yet the tannins are fine and the acidity equally fine. Good drinking today, even better with more time.”

94pts Gary Walsh, Winefront “The quality of the fruit here is excellent, and it really pops with bright blue and purple crushed grapes, sports a bit of coffee barrel char and reduction as at now, but if you look past that there’s quite some perfume, aromatic spice, black olive, and very good structure. It has some chew to tannin, and offers freshness and a vibrant character, and the finish is long and firm. Give it a year or two in the cellar, and I’m sure you’ll be well rewarded.”

93pts Ray Jordan “So you want to know how good 2023 was for red wines in Margaret River? Well, check this thoroughly engaging pure vibrant fruit-dominant Cabernet. Bursting with punchy red fruits with overtones of violet and cherry. The palate is medium-bodied with a seamless oak and fruit integration. Just a beautiful wine for drinking in the short term.”
