Juniper was established by the late Roger Hill and his wife Gillian Anderson with the intention of producing wines which rank among the best to come from Wilyabrup and beyond. Wilyabrup has established itself since the late 1960s as the most successful sub-region of Margaret River, particularly for red wines. When the vineyard was planted in 1973 (under its original guise of Wright's), it was one of only six Margaret River wine producers (along with Vasse Felix, Cape Mentelle, Cullen, Moss Wood and Woodlands).
"Mark Messenger is one of the loveliest winemakers you could hope to meet. Just a bonus. He is also a very skilled one who weaves a bit of magic along the way. Take this chardonnay. It is scintillating. Pure, pristine fruit, superfine and long; the palate an exercise in restraint. There’s 45% new French oak incorporated, not that you’d know it as the fruit has completely taken it in its stride. One of the finest Cornerstones, and ‘21s, to date. Bravo." 97pts | Jane Faulkner | Halliday Wine Companion
