Tasting Notes
This is one of my favourite classically styled wines in-store. It leads with a pretty and floral nose of flowers, sweet spice and dark fruits. Then on the palate you are pleasantly enveloped with a medium body fruit profile that dances between plum-like fruit and a fine but obvious tannin structure. Love it! Great value. - Chris L
Woodlands vineyard was established in 1973 by David & Heather Watson on Caves Road in Wilyabrup, and was one of the first five vineyards to be planted in the Margaret River Wine Region. David and Heather aimed to create wines to emulate the great vineyards of Bordeaux.Woodlands came to fame early on with the release of our 1981 'Andrew' Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine won trophies for 'Best Red Wine' at the Perth Wine Show, the Mt Barker Wine Show, and the National Wine Show. This wine was the first from Margaret River to achieve a National Red Wine Trophy. Subsequent Cabernets made by David Watson won trophies and critical acclaim across the country.David's son Stuart took the reins as Winemaker in 2002. Andrew Watson joined Woodlands full time in 2005.Stuart and Andrew (pictured right) carry on the family love for Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet blends.Woodlands' premier wine, the Cabernet Sauvignon, is still made from the same planting originally made by David and Heather in 1973. Woodlands Cabernet Sauvignon continues to garner awards and critical acclaim, including being listed in the Langtons Classification of Fine Wines.
