Alex and Janet Taylor purchased the Poacher's Ridge property in 1999; before then it had been used for cattle grazing. The vineyard includes shiraz, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, riesling, marsanne and viognier. The first small crop came in 2003, a larger one in '04, together making an auspicious debut. However, winning the Tri Nations merlot class against the might of Australia, NZ and South Africa in 2007 with its '05 Louis' Block Great Southern Merlot was a dream come true.
