Latest News > 2008 Juniper Estate Semillon

Our Estate range represents our efforts to produce the best wine possible to truly represent the Wilyabrup region. 
The formula is hand-picked fruit from old, unirrigated vines which are hand pruned and canopy-managed for low yields and optimum flavour ripeness. Only the best fruit goes into the Estate wines and the process is overseen by the passionate vineyard and winemaking teams.

2008 Juniper Estate Semillon



Awards:

 

Reviews:

For some years now Juniper has been making arguably the best Semillon in Margaret River. This is another pearler. Lovely fresh cut grass and light lemon zesty tropical fruit aromas. On the palate the natural acidity takes over to carry to a long sustained finish. A wine that drinks well now but which will continue to develop in the bottle.
93/100 Cellar 5 years
Ray Jordan’s 2010 WA Wine Guide

French oak fermentation places this in complex territory with lime, lemon and tropical fruit given a glossy wood overlay without sacrificing freshness. In the mouth there’s a textural layering of zesty citrus flavour and gently savoury cashew nuts to close.
93/100
