Region
Western Australia, especially the Margaret River, is responsible for making some of the most sought after expressions of Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon in Australia. There are 9 wine regions in WA and the wines typically have depth of fruit, good ripeness and acidity with a unique line of minerality that runs through the fruit. Some think it might come from the ocean breeze that flows throughout vineyards. Other common varieties you will find include Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Shiraz.
Born from a love of Bordeaux Cabernet blends, and the dream to create a stellar red wine of their own, David and Heather Watson established Woodlands in 1973 within the Wilyabrup Valley. The Woodlands Vineyard now covers 10 hectares, certified organic, and the Woodlands Brook Vineyard covers 17 hectares. Our goal is to make wines that carry a theme of balance, intensity, length and drinkability.

Located in the heart of Margaret River, the quality fruit is a result of proximity of ocean, incredible soil types and a perfect climate.“I started EVOI Wines in 2007 with 2 barrels of Chardonnay. Since then it has gained a reputation as being one of the finest boutique wineries. EVOI is a 5 Red Star Rated Halliday winery (Top 10% of Australian wineries) and was awarded “Western Australian Winery of the Year” at the 2015 Melbourne International Wine Show. The core values remain the same and I continue to be the hands on winemaker, passionate about producing wines with regionality and character. Ever since I arrived in this region, I have been amazed at the consistency of quality.”– Nigel Ludlow, Winemaker
