Our goal and vision is to become the ‘must visit’ destination for locals and visitors to the region. We want our business to be a showcase of Gippsland, showcasing our wines, produce, musicians and hospitality. We want our business to be sustainable and have invested in many environmentally friendly solutions such as solar power, and are proud to be one of the few sustainable wineries in the region. If we can do our bit to help the environment that is something we are proud of. We want our children to be proud of us and know that when you have a dream – dreams can come true

Our team would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past, present and emerging and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. We acknowledge that the sharing of knowledge has occurred across the lands and waterways of Australia for many thousands of years. As we continue to share stories and support small tourism businesses we try to listen to the knowledge and practice that has always existed here and consider how we can contribute to the preservation of culture and Country wherever we live and work.
