The vineyard was established in 1979, by a dentist John Austwick. He had a passion for Bordeaux blends and that is what he initially planted. The Vineyard was sold in 2009 as the owner lost interest after 2 years.
For 2 years the vineyard was left untended until we purchased in 2013. A lot of hard work went into getting the vines back into some sort of order. We are now producing around 45 Tons of fruit. We have a 6Ha development that is partially completed. This came to halt when COVID hit. It will get back underway in the next couple of years. We have picked this year for a sparkling Rose & a vintage sparkling.
The homestead that sits above the vineyard was built in 1836 and is made of Bluestone, sandstone and local rocks. It has been fully refurbished recently and is one of the most photographed houses in Tasmania.

The familiar, intimate format of Wine Soundtrack finds a new home down under. This Australian iteration of the popular Italian podcast, produced by DKPS Media, transplants a simple but powerful concept: a conversation built around thirty questions. Each episode is a quiet, focused visit with a wine producer, where the structured interview peels back the layers of a winery's identity. You won't just hear about grape varieties or harvest techniques, though those details naturally emerge. The core of the podcast is the personal narrative-the origins of a family estate, the philosophy guiding the cellar, the specific challenges and triumphs of crafting wine in Australian soil. It’s designed to move beyond a simple review or tasting note, aiming instead to capture the voice of the people behind the label. Listeners become privy to the candid reflections, the aspirations, and the very human stories that are bottled alongside the Shiraz or Semillon. The format creates a consistent, revealing rhythm, allowing for deep comparison between different makers and regions across Australia. For anyone curious about the character and drive that defines a vineyard, this series offers a direct line to the source, framing the entire world of wine through the lens of personal history and passion. It’s a podcast for those who believe the best stories are often told over a glass, or in this case, through a microphone.
