Wine & Spirits Magazine, a leading American wine magazine has listed Woodlands Wines along with two other Australian wineries in their Top 100 wineries of 2021. Woodlands 2018 Wilyabrup Valley Chardonnay was also included in the Top 100 Best Buys of 2021. As one of the first five vineyards of Margaret River, Woodlands Wines is excited to be included in the Top 100 wineries of 2021 and would like to thank its supporters around the world.

Born from a love of Bordeaux Cabernet blends, and the dream to create a stellar red wine of their own, David and Heather Watson established Woodlands in 1973 within the Wilyabrup Valley. Woodlands vineyard now covers 10 hectares, and is certified organic. Their wines are also vegan-friendly.
Woodlands is one of Margaret River's first six vineyards planted. 

Woodlands produces wine from their two vineyards, both in the Wilyabrup Valley of Margaret River. The original Woodlands vineyard is located on Caves Road, while the Woodlands Brook Vineyard is located two kilometres to the northeast. Their vineyards are dry-farmed, and wines are grown and made by organic practices from the same vineyard each year.

The range of wines includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Merlot blends, and Chardonnay. Woodlands Wines are renowned for balance, drinkability and age-ability. Their Cabernet Sauvignon especially has only been produced from the same vines since Woodlands began.

Woodlands' newly renovated cellar door offers generous and unique wine tasting experiences. You can visit and taste their current ranges and as well as museum releases. There are also options to enjoy cheese and grazing boards full of local and international products during the tasting.

My son and myself had an amazing experience at Woodlands Wines. We were assisted by the lovely Claire, who was very knowledgeable about the imported cheeses and wine pairings. We ordered a cheese platter for two that was absolutely delicious, very generous in it's offering and bought a bottle of the wine we had paired together with one of the cheeses to share with our family back home. A definite must visit when we return to the region next time.

By far one of the best wine and cheese tasting experiences in Margaret River. We were greeted warmly by Andrew who advised that he would bring out freshly baked bread with our cheese platter. Hannah was highly knowledgeable about the wines and suggested pairings. Very reasonably priced. Free wine tasting of over 10 exceptional wines with a three cheese platter at $42. Bargain!! Thanks for a lovely experience.

Sarah’s energy and enthusiasm made our experience at Woodlands Winery very memorable. She is very knowledgeable about the wines and gave us great advice when selecting a variety to chose from. Sarah was also willing to engage on a personal level and ask us about experiences of the Margaret River region. She was a breath of fresh air and we thoroughly enjoyed her company.

Incredible experience. We have travelled around Australia visiting different wineries - after our time here, will keep up coming back to this lovely spot. We originally visited based on the reviews for the amazing cheese platter which exceeded our expectations but we left raving about the tasting experience hosted by Sarah. So knowledgeable, passionate and engaging! Sarah was so helpful in explaining and guiding us through each tasting, providing helpful hints and tips and really created a wonderful space for us to really learn about all things wine. Perfection, really worth the visit and the wine, delicious!
