OUR METHOD & PHILOSOPHY
Our pioneering Subsea winemaking technique utilises the natural sway of the Southern Ocean to stir our wines. This allows secondary fermenting with yeasts at a constant temperature in a pressured environment.
During second fermentation, we immerse our wines at a depth of 20m in the pristine marine environment off the coast of Augusta, where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet. The energy of the ocean current keeps the yeast in suspension while the underwater pressure persuades the yeasts to release new flavour notes not available on land.
But the mystery of nature doesn’t stop there. Because the ocean’s energy is random, every immersion has its own character, offering the truest expression of that season.
Subsea winemaking is bold and unpredictable… but that’s what makes it an adventure.
Creating a new wine language with nature’s energy.
OUR ADVENTURE
Winemaking in Australia has always been at the frontier of innovative styles and techniques, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible to produce incredible wines. Subsea Estate continues this adventurous journey, inspired by the pioneers who have built Australia’s world class wine industry.
Our crew is made up of leading wine pioneers from both Australia and abroad who are committed to discovering new depths of premium wine. At our 413-hectare Subsea Estate off the coast of Augusta, we have access to idyllic and adventurous waters as we explore the winemaking possibilities of the pristine marine environment. This endeavour is backed by the knowledge of French Winemakers, Wine Reef, who have spent over 17 years perfecting their world-first subsea winemaking process.
By combining our experience and adventurous spirit with the beautiful unpredictability of the Southern Ocean, we’re at a new frontier, striving to deliver a fresh wine experience that stays true to a quality emblematic of Australia’s winemaking industry.
Let the adventure begin…
