Originally farmed by the Radomiljac family in the 1970s, the property evolved into a vineyard in 1995 under the stewardship of Monica and David Radomiljac.

Meet the Makers: The Radomiljac Family

For over 60 years, the Radomiljac family has been the heart and soul of Pemberley, playing a significant role in the region’s food and agricultural industries. In the 1960s, Charlie and Joan Radomiljac purchased the original 203-hectare property, where they raised eight children while cultivating legumes, potatoes, and fruit. They also managed livestock, operated a dairy, and even ran a restaurant and catering business in nearby Pemberton.

As Charlie and Joan looked towards retirement in the 1990s, their son David and his wife Monica turned their focus to an emerging industry—wine. Taking a leap of faith, they established vineyards in the rich Pemberton soil, confident that the region’s climate and terroir would produce exceptional wines. Their dedication and passion have since cemented Pemberley’s reputation as a leading name in premium cool-climate wines.
