Description
Bubb + Pooley is an exciting new wine venture created by the husband and wife winemaking team of Justin Bubb and Anna Pooley. The first releases from the 2021 vintage were produced from purchased fruit sourced from carefully selected vineyards in the Coal River Valley and the East Coast of Tasmania.
“We have each been making wine across the globe for over 20 years. After living and working in Tasmania and making wine for a number of premium vineyards throughout the state, the time has come for us to release our own wines. We continue to work with our existing clients, so at this point in time you might say it’s a ‘side hustle’.
It’s an opportunity to work with some exceptional vineyards and vignerons across the state and produce wines that connect with our philosophy of making wine from the ground up. All of our decisions are focussed on how we can do things better in order to minimise our impact on the environment. Sustainability threads through and underpins our approach to everything we do.
The use of concrete vessels is no experiment either – it’s a style of vessel that has been traditionally used for centuries in the Old World. We have chosen each shape specifically to enhance the texture of the varietal within them and these beautiful, hand crafted vessels will last lifetimes.” Justin Bubb and Anna Pooley, January 2022.
95 points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front “Coal River Valley. A wine made by lovely genuine people, which is neither here nor there when it comes to what’s in the glass, though it is nice to drink stuff that’s made by good people. Dark cherry, violet and dried rose, cinnamon, this earthy almost wasabi spiciness too. It’s tight, but delivers dark cherry and dark raspberry in abundance, with a very specific and fetching slate/stony character, pure and cool in acidity, with a long ‘mineral’ finish. It delivers flavour, but there’s no excess here. Beautifully made. Classic Pinot Noir.”
