Small batch wine producers Jimmy & Josephine Perry from Margaret River, Western Australia. Their idealology is the pursuit of creating amazing quality wines from organic & biodynamic fruit with no additives and very little intervention. They believe that this helps to express the vineyards character, the vintage and in return make tasty wines that are alternative in fashion & style.
To put it simply, wines that are pure & beautifully created with loads of love & attention. So, no finings nor filtration & only minimal use of sulphur at bottling. Hence the name Dormilona, which means ‘lazy bones’ in Spanish. As it is a very laid back style of winemaking.

Notes from winemaker Jo Perry, winner of the 2016 Young Gun Winemaker of the Year;
100% good old Cabernet Sauvignon from our little dry grown organic block in Yallingup. Hand-picked, foot stomped, wild fermented in opens & post maceration for a three months. Then basket pressed & aged to perfection in seasoned French oak barriques. Only racked once and sulphured at bottling. No additives, fining, nor filtration to express the wonders of the land.

Natural wine with no new oak use. Gorgeous and bright nose of green leaves, ripe blackcurrants, cassis and sap. Brilliantly bright core of acidity, plush blue fruits and mid-weight body all combine to make this a super sexy, utterly drinkable wine.
