We purchased the property with an aspiration of making fine wine on the slopes of an extinct volcano, Mt Anakie. Our vineyard expands to 41-acres and we have a new cellar door on the hill, overlooking the vines. We've created an idyllic setting for enjoying great food and wine with family and friends.
Owner and winemaker Gus del Rio, produces a range of low yield, beautifully crafted wines. The wines are elegant, and complex, reflecting the true varietal character of the Mt Anakie site, in the Moorabool Valley region. The cuisine is a fusion of traditional Spanish and contemporary influences using the highest quality produce from estate grown livestock and produce.
