Welcome >>

Barwite Vineyards was established in the late 1990’s about 10km north east of Mansfield in the Victorian High Country. We chose grape varieties with the express purpose of supplying high quality cool climate grapes to Orlando for their sparkling wines. However, as this area has a reputation for producing some of the finest aromatic wines in Australia we also planted 4.5 ha of Riesling vines,  the king of the aromatic varieties.

We now have the Riesling made into wine at King Valley Wines at Whitfield, about 40km to our north. We then select the finest parcels for our own wines and the balance is sold to other wineries. Like other Rieslings from our area the wines tend to be very floral, citrus on the palate, will age quite well, and are great with food.
