Description

Embracing the synergy of 700 meticulously nurtured vines, our Suckfizzle Chardonnay embodies the essence of the Southern Ocean's bountiful palette, weaving together complexity, textural richness, and boundless generosity. Crafted without fining or filtration, it boldly unveils the unbridled vigor of this vineyard. Suckfizzle Chardonnay is a testament to the untamed spirit, declaring, 'Challenge accepted.'

Nestled in the heart of the Margaret River Region's southernmost enclave, Augusta, this vineyard stands as a singular gem. Here, it is caressed by the confluence of the Southern and Indian Oceans, mere moments away from the tranquil Blackwood River inlet. This extraordinary locale dances to the rhythm of Antarctic breezes sweeping in from the Southern Ocean, while the steadfast warmth of the mighty Blackwood River tempers its nights. By day, this vineyard enjoys a coolness 4-5 degrees below Margaret River, while nights offer a comforting 2–3-degree warmth differential. It is this harmonious interplay that bequeaths our wines with their distinctive flavors, charismatic character, and exceptional aging potential.

The 2019 vintage etches its memory as one marked by the persistent coolness that unfurled from budburst and lingered through the ripening period. Unforeseen humidity, gentle rain, and a conspicuous absence of winds posed challenges to vineyards across the region. Yet, in the face of adversity, our white varietals emerged with an unparalleled intensity of flavor and acidity. This vintage promises enduring longevity, a testament to the enduring spirit of our vines.
