It would be remiss to not mention the untimely passing of Willow Bridge winemaker Simon Burnell in early 2015. Of course Simon would have overseen the initial production of this wine, a wine that now rests in the hands of Kim Horton who took over the reigns, transferring from Frankland River's Ferngrove.Ladies and Gentleman, here we have a veritable bargain. Shop wisely and you can pick this up sub-$20 at quality independents or online. An excellent addition to any wine rack.
Mulberry, chocolate, a little cassis; soft, generous and rounded palate; a little spice - a suggestion of licorice.
Chalky, powder-fine tannin with a gentle bitterness that enhances the wine's profile. 91/2
