Critic Reviews
95 pts Erin Larkin, 2023 Halliday Wine Companion
" Viognier really is the cornerstone variety at Millbrook, nestled in Jarrahdale in Perth's HIlls. Sweet, spiced apple, ginger, pepper, mandarin pith, summer apricot and jasmine tea. The palate is fat, slippery and oily, with apricot marmalade and cloudy apple juice in equal measure. The length of flavour is very good, however the intensity of florals and ripe orchard fruit mean this will likely be consumed within 5 years of release - and that will be ok. Because it is delicious."

About Millbrook Estate
GOURMET TRAVELLER 2024 WA RESTAURANT OF THE YEAR
Millbrook is a boutique winery and acclaimed restaurant in the historic town of Jarrahdale in Western Australia, 50 minutes south-east of Perth. The winery is located at picturesque Chestnut Farm, nestled among jarrah forests with stunning vistas of the rolling landscape.
The origins of Chestnut Farm date back to the 19th century when the original owner, Joseph Batt, planted an orchard and the first grapevines in 1865. Batt's winemaking landed him in the Supreme Court where he was fined for selling wine from the premises without a colonial licence.
