All processing, winemaking, bottling and packaging are done on site using Ashbrook’s private facilities. 2025 sees Ashbrook Estate complete its 47th consecutive vintage, one of only five Margaret River wineries to do so!
“This estate is one of the quietest and highest achievers in Australia, maintaining excellent viticulture and fastidious
winemaking.” James Halliday AM
VINEYARD
Ashbrook’s first Sauvignon Blanc vines, the “Old Sauv Blanc”, were planted in 1976.
Originally all spur pruned on a VSP trellis, they were converted to cane pruned on a lyre
trellis in early-1990s chasing more of the primary fruit flavours the variety has to offer.
Due to its popularity and ultimate suitability to the Margaret River region a second block,
the “Young Sauv Blanc”, was planted in 1990. The open nature of our lyre trellis
effectively eliminates greener characters and allows harvesting at optimal flavour
ripeness at a lower Baumé. Coupled with the application of composted mulch over the
years, the vineyard shows exceptional health and balance.
WINEMAKING
Grapes were hand-picked over two days in the cool of the morning to capture the
optimal flavour profile of each block. Destemming and pressing occurred immediately
and the juice was cold settled and racked before inoculation and fermentation in
stainless steel. Minimal fining with bentonite was carried out before filtration and
bottling. Our lyre trellis and the Wilyabrup locality allows expression of riper characters
such as fresh passionfruit and English gooseberry along with the typical varietal
herbaceous, grassy nuances. When balanced by refreshing acidity, this full spectrum of
flavours give this variety exceptional length and palate weight. A delicious wine to drink
with or without food. (VF)
