One of the most successful family wineries, a humble operation for the first 110 years of its life that has grown out of all recognition over the past 40 years. In 2003 it cleared the decks by selling its Long Flat range of wines for an eight-figure sum, allowing it to focus on its premium, super-premium and ultra-premium wines: Vat 1 Semillon is one of the most dominant wines in the Australian show system, and Vat 47 Chardonnay is one of the pacesetters for this variety. It has an awesome portfolio of single-vineyard Semillons released when 5–6 years old. Its estate plantings comprise 212 ha in the Hunter Valley, 34 ha in McLaren Vale, 26 ha in the Limestone Coast and 26 ha in Heathcote. Exports to all major markets.
