Bruce & Wendy were delighted to attend the 2024 Halliday Wine Companion Awards night held in Melbourne on Wednesday 2nd August, so that Bruce could receive in person, the Sauvignon Blanc Varietal Award for the 2021 Sauvage Sauvignon Blanc.

"It's humbling to receive recognition for this variety & particularly this style of Sauvignon Blanc, which has enjoyed sur lie fermentation and maturation in oak puncheons.  More so a recognition of what the climate, soils and vines of Margaret River can offer."

"I feel blessed to be a Margaret River winemaker.  It is the quality and vintage consistency of our raw produce which inspires my journey.  The 2021, 2022 and 2023 vintages / growing seasons have been very kind to our Sauvignon vines.  Each cuvee enjoys the subtleties of vintage personality, while maintaining the overall blood lines." Bruce Dukes.
