Great wine is made in the vineyard. At its best it is like a fingerprint, inextricably linking the personality and mood of the land from which it has sprung.
Our vineyard is on 115 acres of rocky gravel over clay, 50 km east of Melbourne, on the north facing slopes of the Warramate ranges overlooking the Yarra Valley. The vineyard covers two ridges that rise from 400 to 1100 feet above the valley floor.
We seek to grow fruit and ultimately make wine that is less overt and obvious than is encouraged in Australia. We look for structure and length rather than breadth; finesse
rather than largesse and above all, fruit rather than artefact.
All work is by hand. We strive to grow the best fruit possible. Whatever the cost.
Because without great fruit there can be no great wine.
