Tucked away in the picturesque Steels Creek valley with a backdrop of Kinglake NP and abundant wildlife we found this tranquil location to grow and make wine. We planted in 1981 and have a “from the grape to bottle–in the one place” philosophy in our passion to produce premium wines.
Visit Joanne and Simon at cellar door, ask to be shown around our winery, taste the wines and discuss our small batch, wild ferment and natural winemaking processes. Experience our unique Colombard and discover our Cabernet Franc.
2017 Chardonnay $30.00
Sweet oak and peach driven fruit make for a bigger, sunnier style than has become the norm. It’s not quite old school, but it’s certainly inspired by chardonnay styles of yore, and will appeal to those looking for a white with body and richness.
Food Pairing - Crispy skin Atlantic salmon served on a sweet potato mash and a side of green beans.

Food pairing - Slow braised beef cheeks served on a garlic potato mash ( a bit of history – we served this dish back in 2007 for the Shortest Lunch and everyone back then were saying we used to feed the dogs beef cheeks and now, how fashions/tastes change
