Our latest insta'green'' feed straight from the patch:

Vintage 2019 in full swing: 1920’s unirrigated Shiraz being basket-pressed with our late-1800’s press straight to oak barrels....the wine-stained hands are worth it! It’s an honour to be working both sides of the fence with these amazing old vine wines. #Vintage2019 #shiraz #basketpress #heritagewines #heritagewinery #norestforthewicked

It may be Sunday, but the bees are up early and very busy in the Turk’s Turban pumpkins this morning...fingers-crossed for successful pollination!

Welcome rain in the vineyard last night...makes my role a little easier!

Last day at All Saints Estate & St Leonard’s yesterday - I’m going to miss working here with such a wonderful group of people. New winemaking skills learnt...now time to shift up into a new role, starting next week! #norestforthewicked #winemaking #rutherglenwine #northeastvictoria

It’s been a very long time - brewing from grain...I’d forgotten how enjoyable the process and the aroma of boiling malt and hops are...plus the thrill of precision 😂 Looking forward to enjoying this ESB

A tough day at the office - exhibitor wine tasting at the Rutherglen Wine Show. A little more refined than our old days of the public tastings at the Royal Hobart Wine Show 😂

Spring is still young after last night’s snowstorm and a long day of seed propagating and garden prep - vino by the firepit seems a great reward for effort! I hope we have enough space for all the potential seedlings 😂

It’s official! Spring has sprung on North East Victoria! These survived the move north last summer and were mere buds on Saturday and are powering on. Looking forward to harvest and brewing. #cascade #hops #highcountry #brewing #beer

Currently growing #inthepatch - red onions for pickling... plus the leaves are delicious!

After a year building the Merriment garden, we've had a chance to watch how the elements behave. We're taking the opportunity to divide our asparagus crowns and plant them into what will become our perennial mini-food forest. Looks like a promising Spring!

Mid-winter Melbourne: it's been dry this year, with clear night skies resulting in nice frosty mornings (especially when you live along Merri Creek!). Frost has benefits for many plants that require a good chill to produce, including "sweetening" brassicas - though try explaining that to our frost-burnt capsicum plants!
