Please note: There is a 200m walk across the paddock to the cellar door.
This tour involves walking around the vineyard so we suggest wearing long pants, boots and bringing a hat and jacket.
Please help us protect our farm from Biosecurity risk. Our greatest threat is grape phylloxera. This tiny insect pest destroys vines by feeding on their roots. It wiped out vineyards in the US, Eu and in Australia, which had to be replanted. Thankfully, phylloxera is currently confined but the insect can live on your boots, tyres etc for months. If you have been on vineyards out side of NSW in the past 2 months please ensure you are wearing different boots or driving a different vehicle or have given them a very good wash before entering out vineyard.
