ABOUT THE WINERY:
We are a family owned vineyard with a long-term ambition to produce outstanding cool climate wines. Our hope is that these wines will further contribute to the reputation of the Grampians and build upon the legacy of it being one of Australia’s great wine growing regions.
Our vineyard was planted on the steep Eastern slopes of the Grampians in 1969. It represented part of the second coming of the Victorian wine industry which had seen very little new plantings since the turn of the 20th century. The region had always had a pedigree for great wines, with the first vineyards in the Grampians being planted at Bests & Seppelts in the early 1860's.
The vineyard had long been a respected grower for many of the country’s great wineries until 1996, when it was bought by the famed Victorian Winemaker, the late, great Trevor Mast, and was a staple of Mount Langi Ghiran until we purchased it in 2013, and renamed it Fallen Giants.
