Stuart Pym's Story
Stuart Pym's Story
Stuart was born in Perth and began his winemaking career in 1983 in the family winery. He had a five year stint making beer with Matilda Bay Brewing Company but returned to winemaking in 1991.
Stuart has a fair bit of experience... He started at Vasse Felix then moved to Voyager Estate where he spent 8 years. After this he moved to Devil's Lair and finally on to Stella Bella.
Stuart and his partner started both the Suckfizzle and Stella Bella brands. This started as a weekend hobby, then quickly grew to being one of WA's most popular wine brands. It did however further remove him from the actual making of wine.
He is now looking to the future and NakedWines.com is apart of that... Angels allow him to get back to what he got in to the industry for, to make wines. Growing grapes and making wine is something Stuart is very passionate about, and something he spends most of his time pursuing.
Stuart is excited and enthusiastic to be getting back in to the grunt work.
