Description

73% cabernet sauvignon, 16% merlot, 9% cabernet franc, 2% petit verdot matured for 14 months in barrel (15% new). It's hard to believe the price of this gift horse. It's complex and rich, with blackcurrant/plum fruit, cedary oak and soft tannins all on the same page. Ready already. - JH-94

Deep red in colour with purple hues. The bouquet is lifted & aromatic, showing both intense blue & red skinned fruit notes, with hints of chocolate, cigar box & dried roasting herbs. These characters are reprised on the medium-bodied palate which is balanced with cedary oak, supple tannins, & fresh acidity finishing long - Winemaker's Notes

The Winery

Juniper Estate is a producer of premium wines in Wilyabrup, the heart of the remote, environmentally pristine Margaret River winegrowing area lying in the south west corner of Australia about 270km south of the state capital, Perth. When the vineyard was planted in 1973 (under its original guise of Wright's), it was one of only six Margaret River wine producers. Juniper was established by the late Roger Hill and his wife Gillian Anderson with the intention of producing wines which rank among the best to come from Wilyabrup and beyond. Wilyabrup has established itself since the late 1960s as the most successful sub-region of Margaret River, particularly for red wines; our reds are true to the style of the region, with minimal influence from the winery, and are further testament to Wilyabrup's proven ability to produce wines of the highest quality.
