The continental cool climate sub-region of Frankland River sits within the north west corner of the Great Southern wine region (its latitude 34°39’S). The Riversdale vineyard, planted in 1997 on deep gravel over clay soils, on a north-south orientation, is located 7kms north west of the Frankland River township.

‘The Philip Adrian’ is Singlefile’s flagship red wine where every measure is taken to ensure only the best fruit and barrels are selected. This wine will only be made in exceptional vintages.

The wine is 100% cabernet sauvignon (Houghton clones), the fruit picked and sorted in late March 2020. It was cold soaked in a small fermenter for two days with minimum pump overs before undergoing an extended and gentle maceration lasting for four weeks. Forty percent of the wine was matured in new Bordeaux oak barriques for fifteen months. The balance went to one-year-old (30%) and two-year-old (30%) Bordeaux barriques (for the same period).

The wine was bottled on 22 December 2021 and bottle aged before release.

The wine displays aromas of dark red berry fruit and mocha characters. The palate is vibrant with cassis fruit and earthy undertones. It has a soft and supple mouth feel with fine grain tannins and good length of flavour.

About Singlefile Wines

Singlefile Wines represents our family’s pursuit of excellence. Every wine in our range embodies a drive to craft wines of exceptional quality from Western Australia’s Great Southern wine region.

At Singlefile we strive to excel in every task that comes before us. From rigorously analysing soil composition and climatic variations through to vigour in the winery, Singlefile’s approach to winemaking is nothing short of singular.

Singlefile’s wines are expressions of the unique terroir of the Great Southern wine region, which imparts distinctive attributes to the parcels of fruit that alight in our winery. We hand pick sites that best suit each of our varieties. Invariably, these sites are premium cool-climate settings, boasting supreme conditions to grow grapes of outstanding quality.

Singlefile fruit is treated as naturally as possible, allowing the beauty of the grape to shine in the final wine. In the winery, we also embrace the “less is more” practice, where wines are allowed to develop with minimal intervention.
