A few words about us

The artisanship of wine-making

about us

In a region fast becoming renowned for the production of fine, cool climate wines, Glenmaggie Wines’ recent show successes have enhanced the regions standing even further.

A Gold Medal for our Bazz Shiraz 2013 and Silver Medals for the same Shiraz 2013, our Cabernet Sauvignon 2013, the Chardonnay 2010 and Reserve Chardonnay 2006 gives us confidence that we are headed down the right track.

These wines are distinctly of Gippsland : powerful full varietal flavours with a light to medium weight and correspondingly lower alcohols.

The Vineyard

 

As Vignerons we make wines only from the fruit grown in our own vineyards. Pilot plantings were established as far back as 1984, but most of the vines were planted in 1995.

Having our own vineyards gives us complete control of the winemaking process from vine to bottle. Great wines are grown in the vineyard first and are only later turned into wine.

Guiding the whole grape growing cycle from pruning – training – harvest – to winemaking is what it is all about at Glenmaggie Wines. Winemaking is a game of inches that mostly requires patience, passion, an artistic inclination and a little bit of science.

Our passion

Community minded

We are truly passionate about our vines and our wines, but with a history of nursing, dance, youth work, building and more recently dairy farming and parenthood, we hope you will find us down to earth and generous with our time.

Come out and see us at cellar door, or find us at numerous local markets and community events. If you have an event you would like us to attend don’t hesitate calling us because we participate in all facets of our local community.
