Winery notes (2025 Vintage)
"Fragrant and vibrant, the 2025 Nautilus Albariño opens with aromas of white peach, mandarin zest, and a hint of sea spray. The palate is bright and expressive, delivering juicy stonefruit flavours with a touch of salinity and fine texture. Crisp acidity drives a long, zesty finish, capturing the variety’s signature freshness and energy.

The fruit was machine picked, using a destemming harvester and soaked for a period on skins, before pressing. The racked and clarified juice was then cool fermented in a stainless steel tank using an aromatic yeast. A short period of maturation on yeast lees followed before bottling. Delicious upon release, this wine will improve for 3-5 years post vintage."

Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, February 2026 (2025 Vintage)
"A delicious wine, varietal and nicely intense with aromas of peach and citrus peel, there’s a mineral quality with a sandy stony suggestion. Taut, crisp and dry with a saline seam surrounding white peach and orchard citrus flavours framed by a backbone of acidity and salivating mouthfeel, an aperitif style. Well made, balanced and lengthy with best drinking from day of purchase through 2030."

Nautilus Estate's dedicated and forward-thinking team of viticulturists and winemakers have a very particular approach to their craft: they carefully blend various fruit parcels to create wines with intricate layers of complexity and put a special emphasis on enhancing their texture and mouthfeel. To achieve this, they are equipped with state-of-the-art, albeit small-scale, winemaking facilities that provide the necessary tools and precision.

While Nautilus wines are certainly enjoyable on their own, their true potential shines when paired with delectable cuisine. Winemaker Clive Jones places a significant emphasis on crafting wines that harmonise seamlessly with food, making it one of Nautilus' core philosophies.

At Nautilus, simplicity is a guiding principle, reflected in a small friendly team. A smaller team size allows each member to be fully engaged in the winemaking process from start to finish. It also affords Clive, the winemaker, the opportunity to dedicate his time to the art of winemaking rather than the management of a large workforce. It's an intentionally hands-on approach!

Excellent winery facilities grant Nautilus Estate the freedom to harvest grapes at their peak ripeness rather than being constrained by logistical considerations. This level of control extends to aspects such as the degree of extraction – the color and flavour – obtained from the grape skins.

Being a family-owned vineyard, they have the privilege of drawing upon generations of experience in the ever-evolving world of wine production. Owner, Robert Hill Smith, represents their fifth generation of family vintners, a lineage underscoring a commitment to a cautious, long-term approach. Changes are only implemented if they enhance the quality of their wines.

Nautilus invites you to savour a relaxed and informal wine tasting experience at their beautifully renovated cellar door tasting bar. Here, Guests have the chance to sample wines from their current selection and fully appreciate the fruits of Nautilus Estate's labours of love.
