Our vineyard was established in 1988 with a belief that the Alpine Valleys provided the ideal terroir and climate to experiment and grow a variety of different grapes.
The site was originally an old horse paddock overgrown with blackberries, however the potential was immediately evident. Not only for growing grapes, but for its appeal as a tourism destination. A place where people could relax in an unpretentious atmosphere and discover the elegance of hand crafted cool climate wines. It is a site blessed with incredible natural beauty overlooking the alpine peaks of Mt Buffalo, surrounded by native forests, rolling hills and located on the Murray To Mountains Rail Trail.
With determination and a list of 30 varietals the winery opened up its cellar door in 1989. The very first winery in the Alpine Valleys.
Feathertop is synonymous with its passion for developing alternate varietals. Savagnin, Tempranillo and Vermentino to name a few, have all found their spiritual home in the Alpine Valleys. But you can also expect award winning traditional varieties like Pinot Noir, Shiraz, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot and Prosecco and a selection of fortified wines.
When you visit by appointment we offer so much more than wine tastings. We strive to make your visit memorable for the whole family with local providore platters, accommodation, cycle friendly facilities, a Summit Cru Wine Club that allows you to access our winery estate 7 days a week and 22 varietals of wine each year at our best prices.
