UMAMU Estate is a five-star James Halliday rated winery that is unique among the Margaret River wineries in Western Australia. They hold their wines back by not releasing them right away.

A new world wine made old world style. The owners loved Bordeaux and wanted to create wines that reflected that love of the region. Expect the Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon to be elegant with tannins yet soft and resolved and the whites to have lively acidity and freshness.
