Juniper Cornerstone Wilyabrup Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 named in the Top 100 wines of the year

We are delighted to inform you that over the weekend Juniper were one of 10 Margaret River wineries to be placed inHalliday’s Wine Companion Top 100 Wineries 2023as selected by Campbell Mattinson. 

It requires a truly exceptional candidate to step into the shoes of an accomplished winemaker of Mark's calibre. Our pursuit of Mark’s successor has been a thorough and comprehensive process, with applications received from both home and abroad.

Our best year yet

In a nutshell, average rains over winter & spring but cool cloudy conditions caused reduced fruit set in some varieties. Summer was warm with no heat spikes and was very dry, perfect for berry development. Delayed Marri blossom resulted in some bird pressure which was effectively controlled. Cooler conditions later in summer extended the ripening period. An excellent vintage across all varieties with Cabernet and Chardonnay as the standouts
