Drinking Window: 2016 - 2018
John and Sue Ward's boutique winery in the Ferguson Valley is a little enclave of Spain, focusing on Tempranillo, Grenache and the white grape Verdejo – a first for Western Australia. Their third commercial release shows real varietal character of ripe pears, tangy yuzu juice and apple blossom on a fresh, balanced palate. Crisp acidity and a fine finish.
