Despite the passing of John Parker in 2002, the privately owned estate continues with a vision for paramount quality and expression of place under the watchful eye of head winemaker Andrew Hardy, head viticulturist Brett Williams and a team of passionate vignerons and winemakers.

“It’s the close-knit community here that makes a difference for me,” says Brett. “It’s a supportive community and you can always get help if you want it. We grow the best Cabernet in the world so I get really excited about that.”

"My motivation is to achieve excellence,” says Brett. “I want to be as good as I can at what I do. And I’m pretty proud of some of the fruit I’m growing, for sure.”
