When Michelle and Darren Haunold purchased the original Wills Domain vineyard in 2000, they were adding another chapter to a family history of winemaking stretching back to 1383 in modern day Austria. Remarkable though that may be, the more remarkable is that 32-year-old Darren, who lost the use of his legs in an accident when he was 13, runs the estate (including part of the pruning) from his wheelchair. Prior to the Haunold’s purchase of the property, the grapes were all sold to local winemakers, but since ’01 they have been made for the Wills Domain label, and the vineyard holdings of chardonnay, semillon, sauvignon blanc, shiraz, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot, malbec and cabernet franc have been expanded. Exports to the UK, the US, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Hong Kong.
