The winery and vineyard, originally known as Killara Estate, was established in 1997 with Bill Downie as the original winemaker. Owner Stuart Proud took over wine making duties some 5 years ago.

The entire property has been bio-dynamically managed since 2010.

"Wild yeast fermented with a high percent of whole bunches in the pot. Minimal sulphur and no new oak – indeed, the ‘newest’ oak was four years old. Ultra-fined grained tannin is but one of this wine’s features. Finesse is another. So too complexity. This is a beautiful wine, crafted to great effect, its flavours of roasted nuts, dried herbs, black pepper and cherry-plum delivered in pure, delicious, impeccable form. It’s enough to make you stand back and marvel. It’s excellent now, and it’s going places." 96pts - Campbell Mattinson - WineFront

"Hand-picked and hand-sorted in the winery, one parcel fermented with 100% whole bunches. Powerful and complex, medium to full-bodied overall. Here the tannins make their presence felt, but are better balanced and integrated than its Gathering Field sibling. Intense red berries remain the centre of a palate also offering darker fruit notes, earth, tannins and spices." 96pts - James Halliday - Wine Companion
