Fruit driven and approachable
A classic blend from Margaret River – pale green in colour, with aromas of succulent Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. The palate is flint dry, with an explosive first impact of racy fruit, creamy middle palate with a fine and lengthy finish.
Bunkers celebrates some of Margaret River’s greatest surf breaks. The region is a magnet for both wine lovers and surfers from all over the world.
Not for the faint-hearted, the Lefthanders break is a blend of big unpredictable swells with a jagged, rocky finish. The wine of the same name will treat you a lot more kindly. Raise your left hand and savour the freshness and intensity of this crisp Margaret River gem. Goofy footer!

2014 vintage. James Halliday (Halliday Wine Companion 2016)
“Plenty of fruit around its belly but it still manages to cut a fine figure. Lemongrass, gravel and tropical fruit with a textural element and good push of flavour towards and through the finish.” 91 POINTS

Halliday Wine Companion: “The ‘left hander’ is a particularly dangerous surf break in Margaret River. Drinkability is the only dangerous aspect of this 64/36% blend; sauvignon gently tropical, semillon the tent pegs. Will flourish with more bottle age.” (2019 vintage)

The Real Review – Stuart Knox: “Green peppers and lime zest aromas. Lemon and lime fruits intermix with fresh green herbs and a touch of grapefruit pith. Zippy acid keeping it fresh and lively along the palate. Bright and clean.” (2019 vintage)
