Whiskey Gully Wines

Elegant, fruit driven reds and lean, balanced whites from vines on a beautiful old Station property at Severnlea, in the heart of the Granite Belt.

Whiskey Gully Wines aim to make your trip to our cellar door at Severnlea relaxing and entertaining - through wine, music and fun. Their wines incline to European styles that favour elegance over power. Their reds are always fruit driven; the whites are delicately mineralised. Whilst wines are very important (and occasionally even serious), they are disposed to make the cellar door experience as informative and as much fun as possible. There's a story for every wine and a song for every occasion. Whiskey Gully Wines produces elegant, fruit-driven reds and lean, well balanced whites: Shiraz, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Colombard, Chardonnay and Black Muscat varieties. The Granite Belt’s cool climate and granitic, well drained soils are ideal for premium wine grape production. They planted Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay in 1997. In 1999 more Cabernet Sauvignon was added along with Colombard. A further planting of all of the mentioned varieties took place in 2005. It was just 100 vines, intended originally as a showpiece but, in 2012, they were grafted with Black Muscat. They also grafted half an acre to Malbec that year.

Their Flagship wines - Black Rod Shiraz and Reserve Chardonnay - have become well known, and Yes Minister (Cabernet Sauvignon/Malbec) has joined them in recent years. Colombard is popular as an aromatic style white table wine as well as the aged, sweet wine style originally planned.
