Willow Bridge Estate 'Dragonfly' Shiraz 2022
Vintage Character
Willow Bridge Estate ‘Dragonfly’ Shiraz 2022 comes from Geographe in Western Australia, a broad coastal GI known for combining warm daylight ripening with cooling maritime influence. The 2022 vintage delivered ripe fruit with freshness, giving this wine especially strong value: the season’s even conditions helped preserve colour, spice and balance rather than pushing the wine into heaviness. Sourced from the Ferguson Valley area within Geographe, the estate’s elevated hillside site and ocean-moderated breezes are central to the style, shaping a Shiraz that leans toward brightness, perfume and structure.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, it shows generous aromas of blackberry, dark plum and mulberry, lifted by violet, cracked pepper and a touch of licorice. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with supple yet present tannins, juicy black-fruit concentration and subtle oak spice, finishing with savoury notes and a clean mineral edge. This is an easy wine to enjoy for its fruit purity, but its peppery frame also gives it food-friendly versatility. Pair it with rosemary lamb cutlets, grilled beef burgers, or char siu pork.
Winery Background
Willow Bridge Estate was established in 1996 by Jeff and Vicki Dewar and has become one of the best-known names in the Geographe region. The estate is built around family ownership, estate-grown fruit and a clear aim to express the character of its Ferguson Valley hillside vineyards through sustainable viticulture. Fruit for the Dragonfly range is handled to retain freshness and varietal definition, with maturation in oak used as a supporting element rather than the dominant voice. That measured approach, together with the estate’s cool-breeze site and regional focus, makes Willow Bridge a reliable standard-bearer for modern Western Australian Shiraz.
