It’s been a while since we re-introduced ourselves! We’re Mike & Kat Archer, owners of Dawning Day Wines, a family-run winery in Exeter, NSW.

Nine years ago we planted our vineyard and began crafting small-batch, estate-grown wines from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay & Gamay. Today, our range spans 25+ cool-climate wines from over 15 varietals across New South Wales.

Family is at the heart of everything we do, and sustainable winemaking guides how we farm and create wines that truly reflect this region.

We believe great wine should make a difference - for the community, the environment, and the people who share it.

🍷 Visit our cellar door in Exeter to meet the family behind the wines, enjoy a premium wine tasting, and discover our estate-grown wines.

Book a tasting or explore our wines via the link in bio. We can’t wait to meet you! 🥂
