Few snaps from a vintage that took its time. Last red ferments were pressed only recently. The final jobs in the old micro shed are nearly done. We’ve been going since January and are enjoying an exhale. The home vineyard is looking less fresh, more honest. Greens draining out to burnt oranges and brass. Pruning is upon us. Bubbles are bottled. Maybe they’ll be ready by late Spring?

Thanks to and all who have supported this project.

A couple new wines for the cooler months will be released shortly. Stay in touch via our newsletter to scoop them first.

A new space almost ready for V26. Keep in touch and be ready for new wines released soon.

These spring wines have well and truly been released to some of our favourite venues in VIC, NSW and now Western Australia . 🥰

A mineral and salty Farmer’s Fizz, a delicately skinsy Fiano and a sparkling Lambrusco Rosé. As always, small lots of each made with much focus and manual effort.

Vintage 2025 was hot, dry and compressed. We closely followed maturity to balance refreshing acid with phenolic ripeness. These wines reflect the electricity of what v25 was and thankfully a few timely picking decisions.

The last bottles of Lambrusco are up on the website now in 3 mixed packs. Good snag for someone special or yourself or the summertime.

A sincere thanks to our mailing list, cellar door and market visitors and to all venues who scooped this release. We are grateful for your support over the years. We cannot do what we do without you. X

Guards on the ground means vines to the wire.

Pruning is done on our home block. The prospect of our first harvest in 2026 is wild. We began our vineyard with little more than 500 cuttings propagated by us, Chardonnay clones (Mendoza, Penfolds 58) and Pinot Noir (MV6 , 114, Abel) planted on the upper level of our clay and limestone Escarpement. The diversity of clones, continuity of own rooted vines and dense planting will hopefully allow us to capture the varietal character of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir as purely as possible relative to this site!

We’re finding the silver lining in the patience an independent project like this requires by looking at where it began; an empty escarpment with no power. We now see revegetated natives standing well above us and up to 1000 vines that have reached the cordon. We have power! And many happy ducks and chicks.

New release is coming soon. X

Pruning has to wait when the local is breaking

We’re serving warm bowls of goulash every Sat and Sunday over winter. The dish reminds me of my Mum’s side of the family who were given it as kids to keep “meat on their bones.”

Thanks to a couple old family cookbooks that came our way from and many tips, our take is made using local grass fed beef from or , organic produce from , a dallop of Schulz quark and daily baked bread from Hila’s kitchen. Seriously, we’re just making things we enjoying eating and we hope you do as well.

Adrien is also a super talented and self trained artist painting nostalgic still life of Melbourne and now Timboon surrounds. A collection of his art is up at the cellar door. Come check it out and warm up.
