Tasting Notes
Nose
The bouquet is complex and inviting. Ripe blackcurrant takes centre stage, supported by delicate notes of fresh strawberries and fragrant rose petals. As the aromas evolve, hints of black tea, aniseed, maple syrup, and cocoa add richness and intrigue. A gentle earthiness, reminiscent of freshly turned clay, grounds the profile with a distinctive Margaret River terroir signature.
Palate
The palate opens with lively raspberry flavours, underpinned by a graceful spice from black pepper and the subtle influence of French oak. Fine-grained tannins and a bright acidity (5.5 g/l) create an elegant structure, leading to a persistent, refined finish marked by complexity and balance. This is a wine that promises excellent cellaring potential for 10+ years.

Winery | When David and Heather Watson first established Woodlands in 1973, they were amongst the first six pioneers to plant vineyards in Margaret River and can certainly claim to have helped establish the region’s reputation for Cabernet Sauvignon. With the addition of a second vineyard site, purchased in 1998, the Watson family now have 25 hectares of vineyard in the Wilyabrup Valley, which is maintained by hand using traditional and organic methods and without irrigation – a rarity in this arid corner of Australia. It is a true family affair; son Stuart is the winemaker, and Andrew oversees operations. Five red stars from Halliday and an ‘Outstanding’ rating for the Cabernet Sauvignon from Langton’s identify Woodlands as one of the very best producers in the region |
