The Fuddling Cup vineyard was planted with premium Cabernet Sauvignon in the Geographe Region of Western Australia near Bunbury within sight of the ocean in 2000. Although the plantings were new, award winning Cabernet has been grown in the vicinity for almost 30 years. Our vines are hand pruned, bunch thinned to control yields and produce excellent varietal character assuring intense flavours for our award winning wines. Aging the wine in the finest French oak barriques rounds out the process.
The goal was to be a small integrated boutique wine business making less than 1000 cases of very high quality Cabernet Sauvignon 'from vine to the glass'. This has been achieved with the very first vintage 2003 attracting critical acclaim and each vintage building on that success. First class viticulture and wine making practices are employed throughout.
Fuddling Cup is a consistent provider of premium boutique Western Australian Cabernet Sauvignon. Despite our relatively small production, we are proud of our product and undertake to maintain and build our reputation on the basis of quality and value.
Harvey River Bridge Estate has a selective group of small growers that supply fruit for their expanding range of labels which include Billy Goat Hill Estate, Joseph River Estate, and Stone Gully. The principle varieties used are Chardonnay, Semillon, Verdelho, Cabernet, Shiraz and Merlot. More recently, a premium cider range has been added to our extensive wine portfolio, utilising the availability of our fresh fruit juice varieties.
