AT FIRST SIP-Fuzzy white nectarine, prickly pear and lemon sorbet on the nose. Very old school lemonade on the palate with plenty of tang and moreish acidity. AFTER A FEW-New kid on the block SSB blend who brought their fun mates to the party.

About This Wine

A great twist on the SSB classic blend, this wine is made up of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Chenin Blanc, Arneis and Riesling. Mij and Liv are lucky enough to have a vineyard with 45 year old Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon vines. These two varieties were harvested and crushed in to stainless steel tanks where it was kept on skins for 10 days. The fruit was then pressed half to barrel and half to stainless steel. This barrel portion was left to it’s own devices and about half of the barrels completed malolactic fermentation. The stainless steel portion however was steered away from Malolactic fermentation to retain freshness. The wine then remained in their perspective vessels for 6 months before being bottled.

About South by South West Wines

Shortlisted for 2022 Halliday Wine Companion Awards – Dark Horse Winery
Winner of 2019 Young Gun of Wine People’s Choice Award

South by South West is a small-batch artisan winemaker based in the Margaret River wine region of Western Australia. We craft wines of excellence and difference that combine respect for the land, with innovative viticultural practices, and both traditional and contemporary winemaking techniques. We want to excite and inspire people to enjoy and respect the terroir of the south west through contemporary interpretations that result in balanced, honest wines.

In addition to tending to our own organically farmed Wallcliffe vineyard we also purchase fruit from a loyal network of pioneering growers. It’s important to us that we can explain the origins of our wine and why we have created that style, the story behind each wine.

Each wine is given the opportunity to develop its own personality in a small batch where it receives the right amount of attention; personality that is founded on the fruit, and realised through the way it is produced, bottled and labelled. In keeping with the traditional aspects of winemaking, our style is focused on minimal intervention to showcase regions, varietals, and vineyards in their rightful form.

Our mission is to produce simple wines using great fruit and minimal intervention, to demonstrate the complex characteristics and values that best represent the south west.
