our story

"There should be a place between the barely drinkable low end of the market and the over priced premium end where wine lovers can get a good quality bottle of wine at a price that is affordable to the majority. That's exactly where our wines fit in."

quality without compromise

There are no sarcifices made when we craft our wines. The soil, the grapes, the hand picking, the manual selection of grapes and the oak barrel maturation - all to the highest standards in the global wine industry.
The Valley

Everything starts with the valley where we grow the grapes. It’s here that we have the perfect climate for creating rich and complex varietal wines. Warmer than northern France, cooler than southern Italy.

Our Grapes

After more than 50 years of hand tending, training and careful pruning, we have vines that produce a low yeild but have exceptionally big grapes that are rich in flavour and perfect for oak maturation.

Hand Picked

All of our grapes are hand picked so that we can sort and grade grapes before any pressing occurs. Only the very best quality grapes are used for our wines. It’s the only way to ensure that our wines are perfect.

Oak Maturation

Oak barrel ageing is critical to a classic chardonnay and we take it to the next level. We age different portions of the wine for different time periods – then combine it all together for our finished wine.

By wine lovers, for wine lovers

Like you, we love a good wine at a great price. For three generations, our family has devoted itself to crafting wines you’ll remember at a price you can easily forget.
Get the right bottle at the right price

The fact of the matter is, many of the more affordable wines on the market aren’t that great. They’re harvested with machines, mass produced in metal vats, and pushed out the door as fast as possible.

It doesn’t have to be that way. As a family of wine lovers ourselves, we’ve spent the better part of five decades building and improving on our approach to handpicking, sorting and babying our grapes for the best possible raw materials. .
