Isolation Ridge Vineyard Syrah 2020 - Small crop and small production, so this has to be on your shopping list. It is quite different from the syrah styles made ten years ago and reflects the heightened attention to improve the vineyard while exploring new clones. This one is largely the Houghton clone but there is also 42% clone 470 with the exciting clone 174 planned for later releases. The aromatics are heightened by the inclusion of viognier and mourvèdre. It is such a wonderfully fragrant and perfumed wine with that underlying regional ironstone character complementing. There is so much vibrancy and energy here – an exciting direction for Frankland Estate.  Ray Jordan, West Australian Newspaper
Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Riesling 2021 - ”Sandalwood, preserved citrus, black tea leaves and jasmine seamlessly merge into the more expected Frankland River riesling characters of lemon zest, green apple skins and chalk. In the mouth, the acidity is like a coiled spring, cushioned by voluminous fruit padding on all sides. This is svelte and streamlined, but it has presence and viscosity, too. There is subtle structural integrity and a spool of lingering flavour through the finish ... what a superb wine. This is generous, but it's tense and taut too... disguised austerity. Slatey.” Halliday Wine Companion
