Our Cellar Door

Our passion for the wines has similarly translated into passion for the design, functionality and architecture of our cellar door which was opened in 2015. The simple yet effective intersection of two shipping containers is the heart of this modern yet simplistic design. Creating an open plan area in which visitors can taste the wines, whilst enjoying the picturesque views over the vineyard and down the valley back into town.
