WOODLANDS Alex Cabernet Sauvignon, Margaret River 2011 Bottle
1 * Bottle
About this wine
Woodlands, established in 1973, has emerged as one of the region’s important producers of Cabernet Sauvignon. The original, dry-grown 3.2 hectares, planted between 1973 and 1976, has now expanded to 10.5 hectares. The sandy and gravelly red/brown loams over lateritic sub-soils are well suited to Cabernet Sauvignon. Organic and biodynamic principles are gradually being introduced. Batch-vinification in open and closed, stainless-steel fermenters with minute parcels of Malbec optimises fruit complexity. Typically the wine shows cassis/ black fruit/ cedar aromas, fine-grained tannins and underlying savoury oak. The Woodlands Cabernet Sauvignon is the founding Watson family’s flagship wine and each vintage is named for and honours a family member or friend.

ABOUT THE WINERY
Woodlands
Established in 1973 by David and Heather Watson, Woodlands was one of the first 5 vineyards planted in the Margaret River region. The first cuttings were taken from the adjacent Moss Wood vineyard. The original dry grown 8 acres, planted between 1973 and 1976, has now expanded over time to 10 ha on prime classic rolling Wilyabrup landscape. The classic sandy loams over ancient gravelly red/brown loam over clay are especially suited to Cabernet Sauvignon and Margaret River’s remarkable “Gin Gin” clone Chardonnay. Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir are also grown. For much of the 1990’s the fruit was sold to nearby wineries, however in 1999 production under the Woodlands name began once in again. Since 2002 David Watson’s son Stuart has been the full time winemaker. His highly intuitive and laissez faire approach to winemaking, together with a superb vineyard site, has resulted in a flurry of interest from the media and fine wine collectors particularly for the Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon.
