Capel Vale has been crafting intensely fruit driven, powerful yet elegant
wines from the cool regions of Western Australia since 1974.
Family owned, Capel Vale has established mature vineyards in
Geographe, Pemberton, Mt Barker and Margaret River, and produces
wines that reflect the distinct climate and soils of each region.
Capel Vale is committed to producing the best possible
wines from varietals that are specifically matched to each
of Western Australia’s premium viticultural regions.
The winemaking team strives to produce wines of
definitive regional flavour and varietal expression.
At the heart of their philosophy is a focus on balance,
complexity and elegant fruit flavours.
The Fuddling Cup vineyard was planted with premium Cabernet Sauvignon in the Geographe Region of Western Australia near Bunbury within sight of the ocean in 2000. Although the plantings were new, award winning Cabernet has been grown in the vicinity for almost 30 years. Our vines are hand pruned, bunch thinned to control yields and produce excellent varietal character assuring intense flavours for our award winning wines. Aging the wine in the finest French oak barriques rounds out the process.
The goal was to be a small integrated boutique wine business making less than 1000 cases of very high quality Cabernet Sauvignon 'from vine to the glass'. This has been achieved with the very first vintage 2003 attracting critical acclaim and each vintage building on that success. First class viticulture and wine making practices are employed throughout.
Fuddling Cup is a consistent provider of premium boutique Western Australian Cabernet Sauvignon. Despite our relatively small production, we are proud of our product and undertake to maintain and build our reputation on the basis of quality and value.
Harvey River Bridge Estate has a selective group of small growers that supply fruit for their expanding range of labels which include Billy Goat Hill Estate, Joseph River Estate, and Stone Gully.

More recently, a premium cider range has been added to our extensive wine portfolio, utilising the availability of our fresh fruit juice varieties.

Our 4 hectare vineyard was planted in 1997 on a hilly 40 hectare property. Quiet, idyllic surroundings, fertile soil and hands on viticulture produce grapes with an intense flavour profile. Traditional small-batch winemaking of single vineyard wines completes the yearly cycle of a mere few hundred cases.
In 2002 we planted six Spanish and Portuguese wine grape varieties to trial how they would grow in our region. The varieties have thrived and in November 2010 we won a gold medal for our Tempranillo in the Australian Alternative Varieties Wine Show.
Our plantings have been inspired by the fantastic wines of Rioja and the Douro Valley. Our ambition is to produce an Australian translation of these Old World heritage varieties.
The Talisman vineyard is situated in one of the most elevated areas of the Ferguson Valley in the Geographe region in WA. The vineyard has a range of slopes and soil types that have been carefully planted to the most suitable grape varieties.
