We went to Juniper on a bit of a whim and so glad we did. Max greeted us with all of the warmth of an old friend and took us through their wines in a fun and colourful way. It definitely wasn’t your standard Margret River stop, much more relaxed and chill. We ended up buying the Nouveau which my partner loved and Aquitaine Rouge which we both really liked. Will definitely be back here again. Thanks Max and team.

The UK guy gave a very detailed information of the wines and history of the winery. Great hospitality and had a blast. The winery was very beautiful and full of flowers

Established in 1973, Juniper is one of only 3 in the region to grow a Fiano. The Canvas Fiano is an enjoyable drop and well priced at $29.00 (or $21.75 if on the club. We bought one! Juniper hosts a sundowner (replete with cheeseboards) on Friday nights. Our tasting experience was both enjoyable and informative. Highly recommended

I came here with some family to try some local wine in Margaret River. This was our first time in Margaret River and our first time visiting Juniper. The gardens were so beautiful and the staff were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. We had the best afternoon and I would highly recommend this winery to anyone considering visiting. We did the wine tasting session and it was spot on, couldn’t fault a thing. 10/10, thank you to all staff involved!
