About Bindoon Estate Winery

The Bindoon Estate vineyards are situated to the north of Bindoon, encompassing ten acres of land. Certified organic by ACO, the vineyard boasts a rich history with vines planted in the early 1970s and 1980s. The estate grows a selection of grape varieties including Chardonnay, Shiraz, Merlot, and Cabernet.

In 2005, we made the decision to cease irrigation for our red grape varieties, aiming to enhance the local regional character, flavour, and overall quality of our wines. This shift allowed the vines to develop deeper roots, contributing to a more robust and distinctive flavour profile.

By 2008, we introduced a foliage spray program using liquid kelp, which strengthened the skin of the foliage and fruit. This innovation provided better protection against sun, wind burn, disease, desiccation, and frost damage, while also offering the benefits of leaf and ground-absorbed fertilisers. To conserve moisture, we opted for ploughing the vineyard instead of mulching.

In 2012, we implemented a new strategy to further preserve the improved flavour and quality of our grapes by rolling out home-grown organic meadow hay between the vine rows. This method helped to conserve ground moisture and reduce ground temperature, stabilising the vineyard’s production levels.

Today, Bindoon Estate produces a range of wines, including Shiraz, Merlot Shiraz, Chardonnay, Blush Rosé, Liqueur Shiraz (port), and Liqueur Pedro (sweet sherry). The grapes for the Blush Rosé and Liqueur Pedro are sourced from nearby, ensuring a diverse and high-quality selection.
