Our Review
The Woodsoak farming property has been in the Legoe family for over 60 years, grazing cattle and sheep. In 1998 Will and Sonia Legoe diversified into grapegrowing, followed (inevitably) by a small batch of wine made in 2006 for family and friends; and finally the commercial establishment of Woodsoak Wines in ’10. The vineyard includes cabernet sauvignon, shiraz, merlot and pinot noir; the Cabernet, Shiraz and Rose are named after their three children, the Pyaar Pinot Noir after the Hindi word for love (the Legoes say,‘We ran out of children, and there was no call for more'). They have opened an Indian-inspired wine room in the main street of Robe. Exports to China, Hong Kong and Korea. -JAMES HALLIDAY
