Due Jolly Winery, WA 165 Merrivale Road, Pickering Brook
Due Jolly (Italian for ‘two jokers’) commenced with the 2006 vintage in a humble winery situated in buildings formerly used for fruit packing. The name was chosen to reflect our attitude towards making wine, in that while the wines may be serious we can have fun in their making. Our winery focuses purely on the production of wines. For grapes we rely upon our friendships with owners of small vineyards. These are located throughout the South West allowing us to choose grape varieties that have been grown in their ideal climate. Our growers are acknowledged on the back label of each of our wines. Our production capacity is a maximum of around 25 tonnes of grapes per year, but typically we only process half this amount as we prefer to concentrate on quality. We believe that traditional methods produce food friendly wines that we strive for, which is fortunate as our modest budget did not allow the purchase of fancy equipment. Our distinctive livery, developed by Andrew Stumpfel and Ursula Shaw, utilises the joker theme and was the final stage in tying together attitudes, methods and ethos.
