Corymbia is the deep-rooted, far-sighted vision of husband and wife-team, Rob and Genevieve Mann. The Mann name is synonymous with Western Australia’s Swan Valley, where Rob’s pioneering grandfather Jack worked a remarkable 51 consecutive vintages for Houghton. Rob was just a boy when he joined his father - former Australian test cricketer Tony - in planting the vines on what is now the dry-grown, organically farmed Corymbia vineyard.
"Corymbia is one of the most exciting wine projects to emerge from Western
Australia in a decade. The wines under the Corymbia label have been outstanding." Mike Bennie, Gourmet Traveller WINE
"Organically dry-grown just 2km from the wild Indian Ocean, our Calgardup Vineyard
Cabernet captures the cool, coastal heartbeat of the Indian Ocean breaking onto the famous Redgate Beach in Margaret River. The ancient granitic gravels give fruit with incredible purity and energy–Cabernet that feels alive in the glass. It’s only taken us 20 years, but for the first time, we’ve harvested fruit from a block of vines we planted ourselves on our Calgardup Vineyard. The new fruit (337 clone and 4th-generation sélection-massale Houghton) contributes gravitas and layered texture to the 2024 vintage. The resulting wine is a testament to an ideal site and plenty of hard work and attention to detail." Winery Notes
"An almost refreshing feel, squeaky in texture, shimmering with fine, high-quality tannin, detailed with salt bush, bay leaf and salted liquorice amongst dark plum, cassis, cola and green olive fruit characters. The perfume is evocative, the flavours in harmony and stretched luxuriously to a fine, trailing herb ’n’ peppery spice mix finish. An exceptional release that speaks fluently of vineyard and place, while providing immense satisfaction in the high-quality stakes division." 96pts | Mike Bennie | Halliday Wine Companion
"This is a powerful expression from this vineyard. Black fruit, iodine, liquorice, samphire, roasted nuts, chamomile and dried roses. It’s medium to full-bodied, quite ferrous and firm, lots of gravel and grip to it, there’s almost a peaty character here, then blue and black fruit, some juicy raspberry, balanced acidity, with a saline green olive and dried herb finish of excellent length. There’s a Sagrantino sort of thing happening here, Italianate in a way, and thoroughly nourishing in another. Outstanding." 95pts | Gary Walsh | WineFront
"Lithe and athletic. Long limbs and wiry musculature. Blackcurrant and black cherry, rubbed rosemary and flowering sage. Dutch licorice and konbu. Composed and complete, deftly poised and proudly mid-weight. A deep, shaley minerality and taut, highly-pixelated tannins." 96pts | Nick Ryan | The Australian
"The 2024 Cabernet Sauvignon Calgardup Vineyard immediately impresses with bold blackcurrant and black olive aromas that are forceful and display a strong, muscular shape. Powerful flavours of liquorice, gravel and graphite are well matched to deep-set tannins as the wine ripples with youthful intensity. A fabulous structural finish of immense length is the icing on the cake." 96pts | Angus Hughson | Vinous
