Shout-out to our postie Daniel!

Was having a pretty s**t day (busted forklift in the w**ery, leaking pipe out at the vineyard) and then Daniel comes along for a chat and everything’s ok again.

P.S. Big thanks to everyone who buys direct. Let it be known that your w**es are sent off by one of the nicest humans on the planet!

Happy Father’s Day to this chap, whose ideal day involves choofing around on his tractor, a g&t at knock-off time and some Tassie pinot (a Burgundy will do at a pinch) with dinner. Cheers Col, Mon Pére!

We love giving our tasting room visitors a sneak peek into the w**ery. There’s always something interesting to share straight from barrel or tank.

Thanks for the support W**e Tasmania!

Always a VIP – consider this the Tasmanian version of a backstage pass.

Straight from the source, poured by the people who grew it, made it and know {precisely} what’s going on in your glass.

Our Mon Père Shiraz gift packs include a selection of exceptional cellar vintages, celebrating a w**e with a special family story.

A lovely gift for any shiraz lover in your life.

Things often come full circle in the w**e industry. This month we hosted delightful Jana and Nicklas from in Germany’s Pfalz region.

Back in 2000 Jana’s dad Stephan worked with Colin, Ben and Nick at **es and the following year Nick worked vintage at (we’re digging up some old photos to share soon!).

Looking forward to gen 3 of this legacy when Colin’s grandkids make their way to Germany. Let’s hope they work as hard as Jana and Nicklas have this past month!

Facebook got upset with us for breaching community standards by posting about “smoko break” at the vineyard.

We’ve since changed the original post to say “tea break” although we didn’t drink tea either!

What should we call it instead?
