Our Review
Flametree, owned by the Towner family (John, Liz, Rob and Annie), has had extraordinary success since its first vintage in 2007. The usual practice of planting a vineyard and then finding someone to make the wine was turned on its head: a state-of-the-art winery was built, and grape purchase agreements signed with growers in the region. Show success was topped by the winning of the Jimmy Watson Trophy with its '07 Cabernet Merlot. If all this were not enough, Flametree has secured the services of winemaker Cliff Royle. Exports to the UK, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Hong Kong.
About
Flametree Wines is a relatively young player in the Margaret River region and is proud of the acclaim it has achieved thus far with its classic Margaret River varietals and blends. The cellar door is conveniently located just off Caves Road between Busselton and Dunsborough and offers a laid-back luxury vibe; equally welcoming for those celebrating an occasion or just arriving from a day at the beach. The brand is best known for its award-winning range of Chardonnay and Cabernet wines, offering one style in each of its three ranges – Embers, Flametree and the Sub-Regional Series (SRS). Next time you visit, enjoy some wine with a build-your-own picnic or platter and select from delicious local products in the Forage Flametree deli area.
