Iron Fist meets Velvet Glove. Ray Jordan notes that Willow Bridge's mid tier Shiraz is consistently one of the best made in WA. This is a step up, the flagship wine, the top tier, and it is exceptional. All of us on the tasting panel gave it 95 or higher! Chosen from the lowest yielding section of the best vineyard, this offers opulence and power in equal measure, with black fruits, dark chocolate, graphite, spice and minerality all on show. Power, length, complexity are a given, somehow it manages to be engaging as well.
Situated 25kms from the ocean on the Western side of the Darling Ranges in the Geographe region in WA, the 420-acre property home to Willow Bridge Estate vineyard is the love child of Jeff and Vicki Dewar. They purchased the property in 1996 after Jeff decided following in his parent’s broad acre farming footsteps wasn’t for him. In 1997 they planted 100 acres of vines then another 50 acres two years later. First planted with Chardonnay, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Shiraz, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the vineyards have since been bolstered with small blocks of Viognier and Tempranillo.

This week we sipped on not one, not two but three bottles of Mr Riggs Montepulciano wine. Mr Riggs is a James Halliday 5 star rated winery which is a pretty amazing achievement in itself. You know when you crack open any wine from these guys we are talking about a glass of seriously good wine and this one didn't disappoint either!
This is our go to dinner in my home. If you haven’t had beef cheeks then you are missing out! Granted this recipe takes a little time to make but the beauty of it is it freezes AWESOMELY.
