Our philosophy.
Our wines are a product of nature.
When in nature, we’re in our element. We’ve been hand to vine for the last 110 years, after all.
Our wine directly reflects the details of the site from where it was sourced. It takes into consideration all the natural conditions unique to our Rocket’s and Calgardup vineyards in the respective Swan Valley & Margaret River regions of Western Australia: the geology, history, husbandry, vine material, climate, and conversations.
It’s subtle, but you can taste it.
We make the best wine, by first growing the best fruit. Dry grown, organically farmed grapes that offer the purest expression of fruit and a clear sense of place. Our process is uncomplicated and respectful. We listen to the earth and work with Mother Nature to make sure our wine grows in the best conditions. A stubborn commitment to a more holistic way of farming that knows and cares deeply for soil health, our vines, our people and the environment.
It’s not science, but nature.
“Winemaking is an entirely natural process and no person has the right to assume the title winemaker. Nature is the winemaker and man—if he is skilled—gives nature the opportunity to perform to it’s best advantage. That is the art of winemaking.” —Jack Mann
