Drink it now or cellar for up to 8 years. No need to decant. Founded in 2012 by Bruce Dukes, Domaine Naturaliste is located in the renowned Wilyabrup district of the Margaret River wine region in Western Australia. Here, the vineyards benefit from the region's typical gravel and clay soils and a climate extremely favorable to quality viticulture, characterized by cool, wet winters and mild summers. Before starting his project, Bruce collaborated with local producers for nearly 30 years, honing his knowledge of the local grape varieties and terroir. Today, his knowledge and passion are expressed through his excellent wines. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are sourced from the cooler southern part of Margaret River. Here, the vines enjoy a maritime climate and gravelly soils, particularly favorable for the production of aromatic white wines. After harvest and fermentation with indigenous yeasts, the wine matures on the lees for 10 months in French oak (about one-third new). The result is an expressive and well-structured white wine with a fresh and vibrant aromatic profile revealing notes of grapefruit, pineapple, peach, lime, and passion fruit, followed by hints of aromatic herbs and pepper, with spicy and smoky touches. On the palate, it is intensely flavorful, savory, and lively, with crisp acidity and a velvety texture. The finish is long, persistent, and juicy. Try it with crab cakes, rainbow trout, sushi, or roasted swordfish.
