See how it works

Meet Stuart. One bloke doing the lot.

12 years on and still hasn't lost his passion.

He grows some grapes, makes the wine, bottles it,
often delivering it himself.

There’s no team, no hand offs, and no scaling it up.

Around 1,000 bottles per wine. Sometimes less.

Enough to stay connected to every decision.
Enough to let the place speak.

Decisions are made wine by wine, not by formula.

"Winemaking to me is an alchemical process where nature, intuition, and time transform grapes into liquid gold."

– Stuart Dudine
