WINE MAKER | Jayson Woodbridge
Exacting and unrelenting in his passions, for Woodbridge there is no halfway. And it is only once you truly grasp that concept that you begin to understand how Hundred Acre has become one of the world’s top wineries. The awarding of 22 perfect 100 scores to Hundred Acre wines by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate since 2002 speaks for itself. As Lisa Perrotti-Brown states, Hundred Acre is “far from a vanity wine project, it’s a life’s work”.
Woodbridge’s unique approach sees him intimately involved in each step of the grape-growing and winemaking process, from hand-picking in numerous passes, hand-sorting berry by berry, to carefully selecting the forest and age of barrels used.
THE WINERY
Everything is hand-crafted, hand-pruned, scrutinised and aligned for his desired response. Each Cabernet Sauvignon represents three single estate vineyards from Napa Valley, named after Woodbridge’s three children: Kayli Morgan, ARK and Few and Far Between.
A plethora of distinct blends and differently-aged lots also make up the Hundred Acre portfolio, such as Wraith, a ‘Holy Trinity’ blend of Kayli Morgan, ARK and Few and Far Between, and Deep Time, a study in how oak integrates over time and how Cabernet Sauvignon can continue to concentrate over five or more years.
