25.01.2022 Oops. No social distancing here folks!!

24.01.2022 You little beauty. Our first Erlicheer bulbs are blooming at our entrance to the cellar door. That feeling of Spring around the corner is so exciting. It certainly helps to put that extra spring in our step.

24.01.2022 We've just set up a page purely for our 3 bedroom Farmhouse accommodation which is a short 100m stroll to our cellar door and restaurant. Plus we'll be sharing all the exciting happenings in our beautiful region. We'd love for you to follow our Bundaleer Farmhouse page and share with your friends. Really looking forward to being able to welcome back our guests

24.01.2022 Did you know our farm and vineyard are certified organic with NASAA? (National Association for Sustainable Agriculture Australia). We are assessed annually to ensure all our farming operations fit within the Australian organic standards. That's good for you and the planet too Repost from NASAA "On the first day of spring we want to celebrate our NASAA Organic 'Spring Leaf' Label. The label guarantees the product is organic, providing consumers with peace of mind.... NCO is licensed by NASAA to approve its operators to use the NASAA Organic 'Spring Leaf' label on their products and for access to organic markets around the world. NCO is highly recognised nationally and internationally as Australia's leading organic certification organisation, and is the largest organic certifier of agricultural land globally. Look out for the NASAA Organic 'Spring Leaf' Label and buy with confidence".

23.01.2022 We would love to see you this weekend. Pop in to gather some essential supplies, all locally produced, to help get you through the last few weeks of lockdown. Or for those really organised people, some Fathers Day shopping For something to look forward to, gift certificates are also available from the cellar door or our online shop.

23.01.2022 Happy International Pinot Noir Day. A perfect excuse to crack open a bottle. Thanks to @rememberthegoodwines on Insta for sharing their love of our 2016 Pinot Noir. We bought this one from their cellar door/restaurant without tasting about a month ago so we were super keen to discover how it tasted. And it delivered. It might just be the placebo but there’s always something about an organic wine that’s just different .... and that’s as good as I can describe it but thi...s Pinot was soft, almost silky with red cherry flavours and a hint of spice. Soft and light tannins. A must try . Cheers everyone.

23.01.2022 The weather is finally shaping up to be a ripper of a weekend to be able to relax and enjoy yourselves outdoors on our verandah and decks. Our chef and crew have been busy beavers creating some mouth watering new dishes as well. Looking forward to seeing you. Bookings recommended on 5345 7408.

22.01.2022 Who would’ve thought it would snow in Spring. So beautiful. But brrrrrr, so cold.

21.01.2022 How incredible are these gourmet mushrooms from Jason at The Mushroom Connection. The flavours are ridiculously delicious. Come join us for lunch this weekend to find out. 5345 7408 to make a booking.

21.01.2022 With more rain and humidity forecast, Doug has been a busy fella applying natural fungicides, sulphur and copper, to prevent mildew disease. Trying our best to maintain a healthy crop for 2021 so we can continue producing your favourite wines. Cheers to that

15.01.2022 The man, the myth, the legend ......... Maurice May. What an incredibly supportive and loving dad he was.
