Altitude 221
A small vineyard planted solely to pinot meunier and pinot noir at Booroolite, it is now tended lovingly by Gavan and Sally Spring, producing small berried fruit with concentrated flavours. Malcolm and Susan Kinloch had established the vines in 1994 concentrating on classic champagne varieties.
The vines produce delicious and full flavoured fruit for the base wine of our elegant cuvee, which is then bottle fermented at Cofield Wines. Occasionally there is enough of the meunier produced to also make a superb, savoury table wine which has developed a passionate following!

Life in the Victorian High Country will take away your worries- a health issue, a work challenge or just time out. Play golf without the hail stones, swim, walk on 2 legs or perhaps trot on four. Enjoy a glass of "Sparkling Sally" or "Pilot's Pinot Noir" and have fun determining the constellations on the label projected above the properties GPS co-ordinates using the Celestron telescope and Ipad Star tracker.

As Winter sets in, the leaves continue falling, the stables are being prepared for the ponies on the cold nights, pool cushions put in the machinery shed and the golf green patches starting to regrow.
