Whistler Wines

Whistler was founded by Martin Pfeiffer, former Head Vineyard Manager at Penfolds and 3rd generation grape-grower.

Therefore, at the core of the family owned business is a love of the land. Now, Martin’s son Sam, with his wife Kelsey, are second generation owners & pride themselves on producing sustainably grown, handcrafted wines.

Grape growing has been part of the Pfeiffer family way of life for four generations. Founder, Martin Pfeiffer grew up on a vineyard, as his father before him, and afforded his kids the same opportunity at Penfolds’ Kalimna Estate. As Penfolds’ Head Vineyard Manager, Martin was fortunate enough to obtain cuttings from the famous ‘Grange’ vineyards (the Kalimna 3C clone), which were the 1st plantings on the estate in 1994. Still family owned, by Martin’s son Sam, the vineyard is now run using organic and biodynamic practices to produce both quality fruit and exceptional wines.
