Original owners George Sutherland Smith, and John Banks, arrived from Caithness, Scotland in 1852 and built the castle by hand. Today the Brown siblings, Eliza, Angela and Nick, own the Estate and make hand crafted wines with a modern attitude.

Howard and Christobelle are unashamed perfectionists and take a no compromise approach to everything from the vineyard, to winemaking, to customer service.

ANDERSON WINERY

Howard Anderson established Anderson Winery in 1993, after 30 years experience in the industry – including 15 years as winemaker at Seppelt Great Western.

In 2005 he was joined by his daughter Christobelle, who had completed a winemaking degree in Adelaide, and worked for several wineries in France.

Howard and Christobelle are unashamed perfectionists and take a no compromise approach to everything from the vineyard, to winemaking, to customer service. All wines are made on site, entirely by Howard and Christobelle. Their eight hectare vineyard is planted on Rutherglen’s traditional Buckshot clay soil, and is non-irrigated which ensures a low yield of intensely flavoured grapes.

Traditional, labour intensive methods including hand harvesting, basket pressing and minimal additives are used alongside modern knowledge to ensure maximum wine quality. They specialise in full bodied reds (particularly Durif and Petit verdot) with inky colour, rich mouth filling fruit, and smooth tannins.

Their other specialty is traditionally made white and red sparkling wines. Like the great vintage wines of Champagne, they cellar all their sparklings on yeast lees in the bottle for several years before disgorgement (removal of the yeast), which gives them an extra dimension of complexity, and a lovely smooth, creamy texture.

Cofield Wines is a boutique, family owned and operated winery located in the heart of the Rutherglen wine region.

The Cofield family are a family of workers, who have been treading the vineyards of Rutherglen for over 100 years.

The history starts with Frank Cofield when he started working at St Leonard’s vineyard in 1909. His grandson, Max Cofield spent his school holidays working there chipping weeds, before getting an ‘inside job’ working at Seppelts and later at All Saints winery.

Max had always had the desire, and in 1990 decided it was time to set up on his own, and open Cofield Wines.

He obviously made the wine industry look enticing, because his son Damien followed his footsteps and took over the winery in 2007.

Damien has a renewed focus to continually develop the wines and increase the love of Cofield Wines all over Australia and the world.

Specialising in sparkling wines made using the Method Traditionelle process, Cofield Wines also offer a wide variety of regional white wines, Rutherglen reds and sweet and fortified wines.

John Gehrig Wines. Quality wine makers since 1860.

John a fourth generation winemaker, established the vineyard & winery on the banks of the King River, Oxley in 1976; only minutes from the Milawa Gourmet Region. John’s son Ross has taken on the challenge of guiding the next winemaking generation of Gehrigs to craft fine wines. Ross has an obsession with producing the best grapes to produce wines of distinction that will pay homage to this iconic Northeast Victorian winery.

In 2011, the allure of returning back into John’s original birthplace –Rutherglen- was too strong, thus Ross with wife Meghan, have expanded to a new vineyard and cellardoor site in Gooramadda (east Rutherglen)

This Rutherglen vineyard site has an historic winery shed transformed into a cellar door perfect for that rustic relax reception or function.

Situated on the site is the old Gooramadda school site which makes a nice secluded personal area for ceremonies, beyond that is the front dam which also makes a lovely spot for a lawn ceremony and a glass of sparkling!

And of course there is plenty of vineyard for that picture perfect moment in the background.

Established in 1860, St Leonards Vineyard is a hideaway for wine and food lovers, on a picturesque bend of the Murray River.

ST LEONARDS

Established in 1860, St Leonards Vineyard is a hideaway for wine and food lovers, on a picturesque bend of the Murray River.

St Leonards pioneered the term ‘boutique’ in the Australian wine industry with 90% of the wines sold through cellar door and by mail order; the marketing of St. Leonards at that time is not unlike the business strategy of today, enabling us to relate to ourcustomers on a more personal level.

ST LEONARDS VINEYARD NV SPARKLING BRUT

Made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This wine is a lovely modern fine brut style of sparkling wine.

ST LEONARDS VINEYARD 2021 ROSÉ

The 2021 Rosé was made from Shiraz, which adds juicy fruit and is lovely on the palate of this dry aromatic Rosé style

ST LEONARDS VINEYARD 2022 CABERNET FRANC

Our Cellar Door offers a unique range of wines including the exceptional St Leonards Vineyard Wahgunyah Shiraz and highly rated St Leonards Vineyard Cabernet Franc.

St Leonards Vineyard has an atmospheric Cellar Door and the St Leonards Vineyard Kitchen. It is also home to a historical museum of old oak casks and open fermenters.

A hidden gem in the Rutherglen Wine Region, St Leonards Vineyard is a world away with a relaxed ambience and proximity to nature with majestic 100 year old gum trees and adjacent to a natural lagoon in the Murray River that is home to diverse wildlife and flora.

St Leonards Vineyard also hosts regular live music artists at Music on the Murray, taking place on the first Saturday of every month. The Kitchen is open for lunch on weekends, November through April.

Rosé is the perfect drink for the warm afternoons and balmy evenings of spring and summer. A seductive pink colour, it is beautifully refreshing, with soft berry fruit and lovely spice aromatics with a crisp, clean dry finish.

This mid-weighted Cabernet Franc is a juicy, aromatic, delight. It has a vibrant ruby colour and an incredibly pronounced and complex aroma profile: red fruits, spices, plus herbs.

Although the wine has a slightly spicy character, there’s barely any oak used in this wine (5%) as Winemaker Nick Brown is aiming for the liveliest expression of Cabernet Franc possible.

ST LEONARDS VINEYARD 2021 DURIF

Opaque with crimson edges, this perfumed aromatic wine is an excellent example of modern Rutherglen Durif. On the nose, earthy aromas including terracotta complement black plum and cherries. The palate is also varietal, dark fruited, and savoury, with wellbalanced tannin.

STANTON & KILLEEN

Seven generations of history

At Stanton & Killeen, we blend innovation with tradition, celebrating seven generations and 150 years of family winemaking.

Today, the business is owned and managed by mother-daughter team Wendy and Natasha Killeen. The winery is best known for alternative Portuguese varieties, flavoursome Rutherglen red wine and continuing Stanton & Killeen’s long custodianship of awardwinning Muscats, Topaques and Vintage Fortifieds.

We love alternative varieties

Originally planted by Christopher Killeen thirty years ago to achieve his vision for crafting Australia’s best Vintage Fortified, our diverse range of Portuguese varieties are flourishing on our site.

Since Christopher’s untimely passing in 2007, we have explored ways to produce distinctive sparkling and table wines from Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, Souzão and Tinto Cão. Adding to the original five red varieties, we have since planted three white grapes to our evolving portfolio. A changing climate, curious consumers and our love of experimentation has ensured S&K as an innovative rising star in the Australian wine scene.

Sustainably certified

In 2022, the business successfully passed a rigorous audit for both the vineyard and winery, becoming officially Freshcare certified through Sustainable Winegrowing Australia.

The softer tannins and savoury flavours of Tempranillo make for a sparkling wine that is both distinctive and extremely enjoyable.

A balanced palate profile with soft flavours of cherries, dark plums and a backbone of light tannins that extend through a long and refreshing finish. Lightly oaked to compliment the fruit flavour

Warrabilla Wines is the home of opulent red wines in North East Victoria.

WARRABILLA

Six generations and more than 150 years of family winemaking in Rutherglen.

While the Sutherland Smith story in Rutherglen commenced in 1864, a new chapter began in 1991 when Andrew Sutherland Smith and wife Carol established Warrabilla Wines.

Andrew Sutherland Smith made the first Warrabilla vintage in 1991 with a determined focus to produce red wines of strucure which exhibit strong regionality. Throughout the years, the reputation for producing textural bold reds has grown, while the commitment to quality and the unapologetic approach to flavor remains.

In the early days Andrew spent much time sourcing the best parcels of fruit across north east Victoria. With the success of each vinatge, the business grew and Andrew began acquiring lands with the sole focus to plant his own vineyards. These plantings have become distinguished sites, each with a distinct signature producing uniquely regional styles.

Having worked extensively throughout the Australian wine industry, Andrew honed his craft at such notable establishments as Yellowglen, Mildara, Stanley and McWilliams. In 2012, he was joined by daughter, Amy Sutherland Smith upon her return from Charles Sturt University. The pair complement one another with Andrew playing the role of mentor and Amy bringing drive and enthusiasm, spurring her father along to yet greater heights. Andrew’s willingness to harness new technologies and reinvest in his business is evident in the strength of these impressive wines.

WARRABILLA 2023 SMALL BATCH GRENACHE ROSE

A delicious, dry modern Rosé showing lifted strawberry and cherry fruit on the nose, attractive spicy texture through the mid palate and crisp, clean acidity through the finish.

Our Small Batch wines are crafted in tiny volumes to showcase a lighter side of Warrabilla. Contemporary wine styles made to highlight our unique vineyard sites and soils. www.warrabillawines.com.au
