#History
Charles and Alison Hewitt purchased the land at 29 Sunny Banks Road, Middleton in 2003 from the De Salis family of Sunny Banks house. In the same year established Resolution Vineyard, planting 1800 vines consisting of three clones of Pinot Noir grapes. Charles and Alison live in England and entrusted the care of the property and vineyard to Alison's parents Peter and Helen Brown.
The Vineyard is on a north-facing slope in the cool climates of southern Tasmania. The first vintage commenced with the 2007 Resolution Pinot Noir and has continued to produce award winning, quality wines made by Frogmore Creek in the Coal River Valley, Tasmania. On Friday 3rd February 2017, Daniel and Caroline excitedly took over the reins of Resolution Vineyard under the continued guidance of Peter.
