Wirra Wirra
Quirky and eccentric is how this winery has been described. Scrubby Rise has no scrub and is pancake flat!, Woodhenge is the rather substantial fence around the winery made from tree stumps, oh and the wine are not bad either. Super, concentrated wines with good depth, lush fruit and distinctive richness.

Simon Hackett
Simon Hackett gained valuable experience with the big guns of Australian wine production such as Saltram, before setting up himself in 1984. A boutique winery in every sense, he produces only 10,000 cases, his wines are terrific value and also quite usefully offer half bottles.
