"Nocturne Wines creates consistently high-quality, limited-quantity wines, which explore Margaret River’s subregions and vineyards. Nocturne started as the side hustle that has evolved into a fully fledged (and sought after) brand. In ’16, Julian Langworthy purchased the Sheoak Vineyard in Yallingup (a former Jimmy Watson–producing vineyard, for the Harvey River Bridge Estate Cabernet 2010), with its 4ha of mature cabernet sauvignon vines. These vines are now the backbone of Nocturne's Sheoak Single Vineyard Cabernet, and the very essence of the single-vineyard wine." - Erin Larkin (Halliday Wine Companion)

"Julian Langworthy crafts scintillating chardonnay, this is as good as ever... it’s long, pure, refined and very classy. Quite effortless – to drink."
- Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)
