Chardonnay 2019

The Wine: Chardonnay 2019 Sam Vinciullo Chardonnay is a white natural wine from Margaret River, Australia, made by talented young winemaker Sam Vinciullo from 100% Chardonnay grapes. No additions, no oak, no filtration, no added sulfites. Unique expression of Chardonnay from Australia, white fruit and white flowers on the nose. The Producer: Sam Vinciullo I finished studying winemaking in Adelaide in 2005 and then worked in wineries all over the world for a few years. It was on Mount Etna in 2010 where my understanding of farming/growing grapevines and working with your environment really started. In 2013 I grew grapes, made the wine in my garage and created my first wines under my own label “SRC” (this stood for Sam, Rori, and Cinzia). Unfortunately, my financial business partner, a powerful Sicilian businessman, forced me out with nothing to show for almost 2 years of work. I returned to Australia just before the 2015 harvest which would be my first under the “Sam Vinciullo” label in Margaret River, Western Australia. For the first 3 vintages, I purchased grapes grown the same way as I farm currently. The aim was always to get back to farming 100% myself. I pride myself on not compromising my values and having integrity and honesty with everything I do. (source: Sam Vinciullo) The Region: Margaret River, The Region: Margaret River
