Great wine starts in the vineyard.

This philosophy is foremost in our minds in producing high quality, intensely concentrated, well-balanced wine grapes for our winemaker Guy Wagner to make into premium wines. Our varieties are pinot noir, gewurztraminer and chardonnay.

The site we chose to plant our 4000 vines in 2005, is a gentle north-south slope, enabling maximum length of sunlight hours in the growing season, with good drainage.

Our regional terroir with its black-cracking, clay-rich organic soils and cool nights are ideal conditions to produce our naturally-flavoured cool-climate wines.

Our hands-on, labour intensive, non-chemical approach not only give better tasting, longer aging wines, they also have important antioxidants believed to entail health benefits such as reducing heart disease and longer life spans.

Our lovingly cared-for vines produce aromatic full-bodied and elegant wines, which we're sure you will enjoy (in moderation of course).
