Since 1993 Adrian Munari and family have been producing hand crafted wines with concentration, elegance, definition and personality. Approachable when young, the wines are have a supporting structure and complexity to ensure longevity. Adrian’s wines share a number of common traits; intense deep colours, complex aromas enhanced by the use of indigenous yeasts during fermentation and minimal winemaking interference is preferred. This winemaking imparts a rich plushness and complex savoury tones to all the wines
Munari Wines' deep, red soil on a Cambrian greenstone foundation combined with temperate climatic conditions produces an enviable “terroir” not unlike the Rhone Valley, whose grape varieties the Heathcote region has embraced.The Ladys Pass Shiraz is our flagship made from our oldest vines. The fruit displaying the bold and complex central Heathcote “terroir.” Our varietal wines, The India Red Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec present their distinctive qualities enhanced by our regional character.The Schoolhouse Red allows us the opportunity to introduce fruit from carefully selected vineyard sites around Heathcote. This annual blend may feature traditional Rhone, Bordeaux or new world combinations.Viticulturist and Winemaker: Adrian Munari Cellar Door Hours - The rustic but comfortable Cellar Door in the old stables welcomes visitors for tastings Tuesday to Sunday 11am to 5pm.
