JILYARA Heath Road Cabernet Sauvignon, Margaret River 2019 Bottle
About this wine
Jilyara Heath Road Cabernet Sauvignon, Margaret River
Soft, rounded fruit with dark berries and dried plums dominating. Firm tannin structure supports the generous fruit and drives the wine to a long, supple finish.
Each variety is harvest separately at optimum ripeness and transported directly to the winery. The fruit is de-stemmed, crushed and transferred to open fermenters which are plunged twice daily. Once the wine reaches the optimum time on skins it is pressed off. Post-fermentation the wine is transferred to oak for maturation. After 20 months maturation, the wine is blended, filtered and bottled.

Family-owned and operated, Jilyara is located in Wilyabrup, in the heart of the Margaret River wine region. The Cotterell family put down roots when the vineyard was planted in 1996. Today, these maturing vines sit on a north-south slope amongst undulating valleys, shielded from the elements by a nature reserve. The nine-hectare vineyard is worked by Craig, from mulching to pruning to netting, with minimal use of contract plant keeping the volume low, all the better to hear the rolling of the surf and the buzzing of bees.
The bees keep busy in four hives at the corners of their vineyard. Their role has less to do with the immediate attention of the vines—the vines already receive plenty of love from Craig and his family—rather the bees support the healthy ecosystem surrounding the vineyard. And their importance is recognised by the winery. The winery’s icon is of the golden bee and the name ‘Jilyara’ is derived from ‘Djilyaro’, meaning ‘bees’ in the local indigenous Noongar language.
Jilyara offers wines across three tiers–The Williams’ Block, Heath Road and the delightfully named Honeycomb Corner.
