See previous notes from November 2020. Herbaceous is the word together with plum and blackberry - some earthiness with a note of mushroom. In summary - Herbal, Mineral, Bay leaf. Not the complete package like it’s more illustrious Wilyabrup neighbours like Woodlands, Moss Wood, Vasse Felix, Cullen etc but also half the price so good QPR. Tasted again 60 weeks later on 6th September 2022 with similar results A good wine that drinks to its price point. Not quite the standard of its illustrious neighbours. Not as much maritime influence?

Rich with fruit and oak with good depth and that trademark Margaret River herbaceousness. Juniper Estate represents great QPR in Margaret River at $50 competing with their better known neighbours in Wilyabrup who are twice the price plus. Drink the last 2 bottles in the next few years.

From the Wilyabrup dress circle in Margaret River near Woodlands and Moss Wood but not showing the normal leafy herbaceous style. This is showing more fruit like Blackberries and Mulberries. Good intensity and length with medium dry tannins.
