Patrick Sullivan

Patrick Sullivan is one of the most exciting names in Australian wine, a cult grower working with a low-intervention philosophy in the cool, green hills of Gippsland, Victoria. His wines have a devoted following for their energy, purity and sense of place. Farming organically and biodynamically, Sullivan tends and sources from carefully chosen sites, letting the vineyards speak through wild ferments and a gentle hand in the cellar. Nothing is forced; everything is about texture, tension and freshness. Chardonnay is the calling card, from the taut, mineral Ada River and Camp Hill single-site bottlings to a brilliantly drinkable estate cuvee. Each is precise, flinty and alive. Distinctive, honest and quietly profound, Patrick Sullivan makes wines that reward attention, benchmarks for the new wave of cool-climate Australia.
