Our Review
In the early 1960s the Rica family planted table grapes, followed by shiraz and semillon in ’64–66: these are said to be the oldest vinifera vines in the Granite Belt region. The Tobin family (headed by Adrian) purchased the vineyard in 2000 and has increased the plantings, which now consist of shiraz, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, tempranillo, semillon, verdelho, chardonnay, muscat and sauvignon blanc. -JAMES HALLIDAY
