The total investment in the venture was $12 million; there are two separate vineyard properties and an onsite winery, together planted to pinot noir, viognier, shiraz, zinfandel, sauvignon blanc, pinot gris and semillon. In addition there is a 2.4ha planting of 42 varietals, rootstocks and clones at the Russells Bridge Vineyard, including varieties such as gamay, nebbiolo, mourvedre and roussanne. Exports to the UK, China and Hong Kong. -JAMES HALLIDAY
