We have collated some of Ray’s reviews on the Myattsfield wine range below.
95 points – This is a variety that is generally made big, bold and alcoholic. Yet this marvellous wine is anything but. It is more medium weight with an elegance you just don’t normally see. Once again a combination of oak and ceramic eggs have been used. It works so well, preserving and displaying the wild fruit aromatics on the nose and creating a defined and refined palate. A revelation for me.
93 points – Everything possible has been done to preserve all the crisp fresh flavours of this Italian variety that Myattsfield does so well. Crisp pear and green apple with a citrus tang to lift. It’s flavoursome but with a distinct linear mouthfeel heightened by a fine crisp acidity.

Learn more about Myattsfield
Myattsfield Vineyard is a beautiful boutique winery nested in the Perth Hills region.
The original Myattsfield was the family farm in Camberwell, London. Joseph Myatt established a market garden on land owned by the Minet family. Over 175 years on, as descendants of Joseph, we’re now here in the Bickley Valley, Western Australia. The Bickley Valley is merely a small sub-region of the Perth Hills Wine Region, spanning from Chittering to Jarrahdale. This area was acknowledged for its distinct set of geographical and topographical influences impacting the wine quality in the region by the Geographic Indications Committee. It was granted GIC status as a gazetted wine region in 1999.
Who owns Myattsfield Winery? Owners Josh and Rachael are devoted to producing premium red and white wines with a personal, hands on approach. Their wines continue to gain accolades through the industry, with the likes of Ray Jordan ranking Myattsfield a top winery of the Perth Hills. We are pleased to offer you their extensive array of award-winning wines. Expect your palate to be taken on a journey of flavours, with some lesser known, but amazing varietals rarely found like Durif.
The Darling Scarp protects the Valley from maritime influences, making the climate more continental than Mediterranean in nature. This corresponds to cold nights and warm days. Valley walls reduce direct daylight hours, resulting in the daily maxima arriving later in the day and for a shorter period. At 300-350m above sea level, the Bickley Valley is 2-3 degrees cooler than Perth. Amongst the undulating terrain and aspects, site plays an important role in the valley. Elevated, northern-facing slopes produce significantly warmer sites better suited to dry red varieties. Southern-facing, lower sites produce cooler variations capable of producing better whites and lighter reds, while elevated, western-facing sites are ideal for fortified production.
