A consistent wine show performer, previous vintages have claimed conspicuous gold medals at Mundus Vini Germany, Sydney International Wine Competition and Royal Sydney, silver at the prestigious Qantas and Decanter World Wine Awards. Vintage 2009 claimed Blue Gold Medal & Top 1OO Sydney International, Gold Qantas Wine Show WA, Silver Mundus Vini International Wine Show & Sydney Royal. A magnificent rendering of stylish Margaret River Shiraz, from one of the most meticulously planned and managed vineyards in Western Australia.
Considered to be one of the better microclimates and terroirs in the dress circle of the region, Watershed sits not far from the highway turn off to Leeuwin and Voyager, two of the most distinguished vineyard sites in the district. A graduate of viticultural science at Charles Sturt University, Watershed's chief vintner and Shiraz specialist spent several years as vineyard manager at Xanadu Wines immediately following a two year stint at neighbouring Voyager Estate.
TASTING NOTES
Brick red colour, purple hues. Complex aromas of dark berries and plum, liquorice with hints of coffee, spices and dark chocolate. On the palate the dense velvety texture is complemented by cinnamon spice and mocha notes from extended oak maturation. The rich fruit flavours and fine silky tannins make Senses an exceptional drink immediately upon release.

About Watershed Winery
Watershed is a dividing rise of land between two bodies of water. Watershed means to go to a new and higher level of understanding, an awakening
The Watershed label was designed by Roland Butcher and incorporates a purple room with a four paned window on the wall. Green vines can be seen looking out of the window, however, the main focus is a ray of light streaming through the glass and diffusing across the floor, symbolizing a human being’s stream of consciousness - a creative but almost uncontrollable thought process, spurred on by small inspirations, all leading to a final revelation, or awakening.
