A small stream runs through the land in Winter.<\/p><p>In 2010, the family and a gaggle of friends worked together to plant out 1.8 hectares of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines on the stony river terraces with a thin topsoil over a gravel base. After supplying commercial wineries with grapes for a number of years they wanted to see the true potential of our land realised\u00a0in their own wine label.
