Thick as Thieves Another Bloody Chardonnay 2025

'Sometimes my job is as simple as fermenting grape juice and letting it do it's thing. Sometimes nature can throw a few curve balls and the wines need more love and attention. For me it's about making honest expressions of the variety and the site while making sure it's a great wine to drink.' - Syd

In 2009 Syd Bradford started Thick as Thieves Wines in the Yarra Valley as a virtual operation - buying in grapes and renting facilities. After years of hard yakka, he has now established a family wine business and vineyard. . . one happy little vegemite! Purchasing the Cypress Ridge vineyard in the Yarra Valley in 2012 was the game changer for Thick as Thieves… 26 year old pinot noir vines that are in a happy spot and produce Syd's flagship pinot wines.

Winemaking- three vineyards on the Valley floor - two clay and one granite; mix of destemmed and whole bunch pressing; mix of older barrels and tank fermented.
