The property was purchased in 1946 by Vic and Netta Lange and began as a mixed grain and livestock farm. In 1971, their daughter Judy and her husband Merv Lange made the bold decision to plant one hectare each of Cabernet Sauvignon and Riesling, together with smaller plantings of Shiraz and Malbec.

de VESÉ Wines

Wines are crafted by Andrew Vesey, whose approach to winemaking is guided by intuition, experience, and a deep respect for site. His philosophy is simple yet exacting: when the vineyard is in balance, gentle winemaking is enough. Fermentation and maturation are handled with restraint, allowing purity, subtle texture, and clarity of place to emerge without interference. These are wines patiently nurtured, rather than shaped.

Plantagenet Wines

Established by Tony Smith in 1968, Plantagenet Wines was the first commercial winery in the Great Southern and helped lay the foundations for one of Australia’s most exciting cool-climate wine regions.
