For those of you who didn't know, we not only make For those of you who didn't know, we not only make Heathcote wines, we are also commercial grape growers. Due to a few changes in our industry, we have come to vintage for the first time with fruit available. 

It is a consistent, quality parcel and I'm confident it will bring joy to someone who is looking for fruit.

Our 21 vintage of this fruit won Best Shiraz at the 2022 Vic Wine Show and this one is cropping even lower! I believe in this fruit quality so much I have tripled my production this year. Happy sips ahead!

The vineyard is located in the northern end of the Heathcote wine region (Corop) with the current cropping level of approx. 2t/acre (Shiraz). The vineyard is in great shape and we expect exceptional fruit quality.

All inquiries please contact Brian Dwyer 0418937341 or DM us

*Side Note - these people will not be picking the fruit. We will most likely use a machine or hand pickers who are legally old enough to work. These guys will be busy running drink bottles & picking up rocks for free.
Tonight’s the perfect night to remind you beauti Tonight’s the perfect night to remind you beautiful people that our 2021 Shiraz is an award winner! It has been very popular and there is now very limited stock.

Kimmi K can keep her diamonds - this girl will tak Kimmi K can keep her diamonds - this girl will take dirt every time. My breath (and dreams) were taken away by this patch of iron oxide rich paddock along the Mt.Camel Range (Northern Heathcote) that I just had to stop and take some pics. Our soils are the secret sauce in our wines, and what makes Heathcote distinct from other regions. Traveling the Heathcote-Rochester Road you will find so many artisan winemaking farms you will wonder why you never did the drive before.

Heathcote & Rochester await to welcome you...

Red red wine! Happy new year to you wine lovers ou Red red wine! Happy new year to you wine lovers out there. Speaking of love- this is one of our faves. 2021 Alquemie Shiraz. We are not only growing for intensity in the fruit but are chasing the ultimate balance between elegance and power. The goal is a complete and balanced wine, showing Heathcote intensity, yet restrained enough to highlight fruit characters with grace and poise. #wine #redwine #shiraz #AlquemieShiraz #heathcote #victoria #australia

🍇 oh Shiraz! Indulge yourself in our 2021 delic 🍇 oh Shiraz! Indulge yourself in our 2021 deliciousness 🍇 The Heathcote terroir is sought for the robust structure, inherent flavors and spiciness it imparts in Shiraz. It is, for this reason, we can keep our winemaking intervention simple, letting the red soil do the talking in our full-bodied, silky-smooth Shiraz.
