Yallingup torpedoes world’s best wines

Yallingup may be better known for its surf than its wine but little known producer Cape Naturaliste Vineyard’s red wine has been named one of the world’s best. The small producer’s Torpedo Rocks Cabernet Merlot 2009 has won the London International Wine Fair trophy for best red wine from a single vineyard at the International Wine and Spirit Competition awards. Owner Craig Brent-White said it was a major coup for the “most western vineyard in Australia”, reports The West Australian.
