Following our recent win as WA’s Favourite Wine, we’re thrilled to share another milestone: every wine in our 2024 vintage has received 90+ point scores from The Wine Advocate — the most influential wine review publication in the world.
To receive one gold-level score is an honour. To have our entire range rated at that level is a powerful recognition of the care, craft, and ambition behind our wines.
The reviews were conducted by Erin Larkin, one of Australia’s most respected wine critics, who writes for Robert Parker Wine Advocate — a global authority read by collectors, sommeliers, and wine lovers around the world. Her tasting notes praised the detail, complexity, and character of our wines, with the 2024 Homestead Syrah taking top honours at 94 points.
Here’s the full breakdown:
2024 Homestead Syrah – RP94
2024 Estate Syrah – RP93
2024 Riesling – RP92
2024 Rosé – RP91
“Succulent and spicy, with lashings of fruit and tannin… raspberry, dark chocolate, aniseed, liquorice and tapenade working together in a wine of detail and concentration – a remarkable wine of pleasure and shape. Warmly recommended.”
— Erin Larkin for The Wine Advocate
This moment marks more than just a successful vintage. It signals Ampersand Estates’ emergence as a serious contender in Australia’s premium wine landscape — and now, one being watched by an international audience. It’s rare for a young, regional winery to be so strongly embraced by both the public and critics alike. But this is what makes our story so exciting — and still only just beginning.
Thank you to everyone who’s supported us so far. We invite you to taste what all the excitement is about.
