The 2023 Ulus Wild Fumé is here! ULUS pronounced “Oolooze” - named after one of our favourite surf breaks down in the south west, is a wine made with WILD yeast in a FUMÉ Blanc style… it’s not your average Sauvy B. Sauvignon Blanc grapes were handpicked from an organic certified vineyard on the west side of Margaret River, in late February. Fermented with wild yeast in a mixture of two and three year old French oak barrels and stirred regularly throughout fermentation. The wine was aged sur-lie for 6 months before being bottled without acid additions, finings or filtration. Intense aromas of mandarin, orange blossom and fresh pineapple with secondary notes of marzipan, cap-gun and sea salt. Crunchy acid is the backdrop for a generous, complex palate reminiscent of lemon tart, passionfruit pulp and pineapple lumps. A full-bodied white wine with a long, lemon soaked oak finish. Available now. @unearthedwine www.valleeduvenom.com.au

Spring Summer 2023 looking a little different…

We’ve been working on some ridiculously exciting stuff…. New wines, fresh looks and a little sum’sum opening this summer! Stay tuned.

It’s been a huge week of events for us up in Perth. Starting with @thecornerdairy bday celebrations, @unearthedwine & @offthevinedist trade event followed by @finevinesfest opening party and finally @mas.perth divine wine and wagyu dinner last night. Thank you to everyone who came out to say hi, try our wines or hang with us during these events. Also, huge props to our talented mates who generously throw our pet nat in the mix for a photoshoot here and there. Go check out some more creative geniuses. @jamessimmonsphotography @octaviaweddings @brideandgroomedhairstylist @painted_bypia @galialahav @archelabridal @dionforbrides @_gracetowers @theweddinghubperth @silverhalidestudios @kezanijewellery

Organic, dry grown, handpicked, single vineyard Sauvignon Blanc from the heart of Margaret River. Fermented with wild yeast in French oak then bottled without finings, acid additions or filtration. This was the first wine to run through our new bottling equipment. We’ve improved our set up with a retrofitted filler, bottling with constant CO2 coverage, nitrogen injection and an electronic fill level sensors to improve dissolved oxygen concentrations. A step up from our beloved vacuum filler and over a hundred percent increase in productivity and efficiency. Love it.

Setting aside time to create marketing content in the winery is often diverted to an impromptu Indi photoshoot… 2022 Chenin Blanc drinking superbly… now back to Indi.

Checking in on the 2023 Chenin Blanc. Whole bunch pressed into steel, fermented with wild yeast and aged in old french oak. Tomorrow we bottle the Ulus Wild Fumé, the first of our 23 whites to come out. Oaky boizz coming soon…
