James' Review
Bruce Dukes' career dates back over 30 years, its foundations built around a degree in agronomy from the University of WA, followed by a masters degree in viticulture and agronomy from the University of California (Davis). A four-year stint at Francis Ford Coppola's iconic Niebaum-Coppola winery in the Napa Valley followed. Back in WA Bruce worked with a consultancy and contract winemaking business in Margaret River in 2000. His winery was set up to handle small and large amounts of fruit, but it was not until '12 that he made his own wine under the Domaine Naturaliste label. The quality of all the wines is excellent. Exports to the UK, the US, Canada and China.
About
Domaine Naturaliste Vineyard is located in the heart of the highly acclaimed Wilyabrup sub-region of Margaret River in Western Australia. Our vines are seven kilometers inland from the magnificent Indian ocean. The gravelly loam soils provide a stable foundation for our 20 year old grapevines, allowing them to achieve balance. The maritime climate is characterised by cool wet winters, and long gentle summers, which makes our area a pristine environment for growing wine.
Specialities
Chardonnay, cabernet, syrah, sauvignon blanc.
