We produce two styles of extra virgin olive oil and we are happy to teach you about how to best use them in your cooking. We try to make your visit an educational experience well as a chance to taste fresh and delicious local products.

Built from a family tradition of values, we take immense pride in what we do. We only use our own estate grown fruit and believe that good wine starts in the vineyard. All the varieties were planted at the same time and are treated with the same level of attention. The picking is done by hand so the grapes can be whole-bunch pressed before being literally hand-crafted. From the vineyard to the bottle, our focus is on quality.
Low impact viticulture focuses on green techniques.... the vines are dry grown.... an extensive canopy management is in place.... with low yielding crops.... use of quality modern winemaking equipment.... combination of different traditional winemaking techniques.... and minimal intervention. Our philosophy is to remain relatively small in production, to produce interesting wines of the highest quality.
Location on the Cape
Eagle Vale is situated just south of the Margaret River township, quite central on the cape, in the south west corner of Western Australia. Only three kilometres from the coast of the Indian Ocean, Eagle Vale experiences a temperate maritime climate. Due to this and the surrounding, protective marri and karri trees, spring is frost free and the summers are long and mild. It is the long ripening period that allows the grapes to develop more complexity. It is no surprise that the cape has been recognized as one of the world’s premium grape growing regions.

Fraser Gallop Estate is a boutique, premium wine producer located on Metricup Road, Wilyabrup, in the Margaret River wine region - 165 acres of undulating land with 50 acres under vine.
The soils are rich, gravelly loams with clay sub-strata. These provide us with the attributes necessary for an un-irrigated vineyard. All vines are dry grown from planting, cane pruned, low yielding, shoot thinned, leaf plucked, bunch thinned and hand picked. An intensive approach, but one that is reaping rewards.
The winemaking philosophy at Fraser Gallop Estate is all about wine quality. Our main aim is to preserve the fruit flavours in the grape as much as possible. This means minimal handling of the grapes and treating the grapes with ‘kid gloves’. This includes hand-picking, gravity feeding the press and minimal pumping of the wine. It is paramount that we ensure the fruit’s qualities are showcased in the glass.
Fraser Gallop Estate wines are available via our website and select retail outlets in Western Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.
We welcome your feedback (via our website) on your experience when enjoying a glass of Fraser Gallop Estate wine!

Beautifully situated alongside national forest, just south of Margaret River in Forest Grove, Green Valley was established in 1979.
Green Valley works on a philosophy of lower yielding vines producing fruit with intense varietal flavours. The vineyard produces a boutique range of award-winning wines, being Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and our 'Gelignite Block' Shiraz
Green Valley has the enviable reputation for the stunning intensity of the flavour of its wines. Within the Margaret River Climate, a small scale sub-climate exits from north of Forest Grove and southward to Karridale.
This sub-region is distincly cooler in the ripening season and allows the grapes at Green Valley Vineyard to gently ripen and develop the intense flavour for which the vineyard is receiving a growing reputation.
The summer storms are steered by topography to the north or south and as a consequence, less rain in the ripening-harvest period than elswhere in the region.

After several years of corporate ownership Hay Shed Hill is back in the hands of winemakers.
Hay Shed Hill is one of a select group of classic old Margaret River vineyards right in the heart of the Willyabrup Valley – the premier sub region of Margaret River. Surrounded by the big names of Margaret River; Cullen, Moss Wood, Vasse Felix, Gralyn, Woodlands; the Hay Shed Hill vineyard is a rare gem of a site first planted in 1975 when Margaret River was known only by dairy farmers, surfers and hippies.
Hay Shed Hill has been a hidden gem in the Margaret River vineyard scene, producing wines of great depth and elegance for many years but without the fanfare of some neighbouring vineyards. Changes of ownership have not allowed the vineyard and the wines to achieve their true potential, but now winemakers have bought back the farm and now it is all about the wine – just like it should be.

Premium wine can only come from excellent fruit and it is this reason that Howard Park’s locations, in the heart of the Great Southern and Margaret River, were chosen. The sourcing of this fruit from specific vineyards, and in many cases specific blocks on the vineyard, is the single most important factor in the production of Howard Park Wines.
The Howard Park Riesling, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot and regional range of reds are only ever produced in very small quantities, but are noted for their rare balance of elegance and power. They also have a proven history of ageing with increased complexity and interest ensuring these wines are always in demand.

Harmans Ridge Estate is a producer of premium Margaret River wines under the Harmans of Margaret River and Howling Wolves labels
The Howling Wolves label comes from a blues singer the owners liked called Howling Wolf
They were unable to use this name as there is a commune called Wolf in the Moselle area of Germany and so it is registered as an Appellation, as is Margaret River,so the name was made into the plural Wolves
The fruit for both Harmans and Howling Wolves comes from 8 vineyards-all but one in the Margaret River area. Riesling is sourced from the Pemberton area

The origin of the candy called 'fudge' was probably the accidental graining of caramel prepared with high sugar content. Some manufacturers have labelled basic caramel as being fudge. There is one important difference between caramel and fudge. Caramel is basically a fat emulsion in an amorphous syrup with the milk protein dispersed with the fat and milk protein in a syrup phase of a saturated solution of sugar and glucose.
The fudge manufactured at the Margaret River Fudge Factory follows the definition and correct recipe for fudge and was devised after years of trial and error in Australia. The fudge is made by the process of rapid mixing and is the 'home made' product we all love. To ensure that every piece of fudge maintains the highest level of quality each phase of our preparation and production is done by hand.
We individually inspect all ingredients in every batch of fudge. We closely monitor the temperature and cooking time of the fudge. A slight variation in cooking time or temperature could cause the fudge not to set or too lose its robust flavour.
Our cooking process allows us to give the fudge the individual attention that machine or mass production can not.

A lone blackboy growing in the middle of the creek is all that was left standing
It still stands, the waters still ravage, but we believe we have finally defeated the Mongrel Creek.

Dont miss the Olio Bello experience during your stay in Margaret River.
Located on a magnificent 320 acre certified organic property in Cowaramup,
Olio Bello is a boutique, multi-award winning producer of extra virgin olive oil and also home to a stylish Tasting Room and popular Mediterranean Alfresco Cafe.
As its namesake suggests - Olio Bello produces simply beautiful oil. With more than 14 varieties grown on the property, visitors have the chance to try some unique varieties that are rarely seen or pressed anywhere else in Australia, including
an innovative range of citrus pressed and infused oils, along with its traditional estate-pressed organic range.
Learn the "how to" of tasting extra virgin olive oils, sample the gourmet deli range of dukkah, tapenades and condiments, before enjoying a quick coffee and cake or a long, lingering Mediterranean lunch in the Cafe. In spring and summer, why not take off and picnic amongst the olive groves!
Everything at Olio Bello is made by hand and inspired by olive oil. Indulge in the farm-direct produce including: hand-made fettuccini; pizzas; freshly baked olive bread; crostini; olive tapenades and Margaret Rivers best kept secret - a Chocobello dessert.
Be pampered by Olio Bellos new "Organic Body Care" range, or nurture the creative chef within and choose from a wide selection of cookbooks and olive oil accessories from the gift shop.
For those of you wanting to continue your Olio Bello experience and learn more about the products, organic farming and sustainable living, simply join the FOOBIES club (Friends of Olio Bello) at the farm or via the website wwww.oliobello.com and receive VIP discounts and benefits.
OLIO BELLO LEADS THE WAY
Olio Bello is a boutique, hand-made product, rather than a mass market oil. Extra virgin oil comes from the olives' first pressing, so it is very fresh. Olive oil loses its health properties with time and dilution, so the ideal oil should be extra virgin and recently pressed.
Locally produced oil is likely to be much fresher than imported oils, which have often been in the bottle for many months. Visit Olio Bello and taste the difference!

Peacetree Estate was established in 1995 with the planting of 180 olive trees at the same time as our vines Three generations of Tuckers, Jane, John, and their sons Ben,Jake,Nathan,Sam and John's father Neville and his wife Joan, who were over for the Christmas holidays, planted the trees in one of the hottest Januarys in WA history with temperatures reaching 40 degrees.
The olives were upstaged by the planting of five acres of Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon stock from Amberley Estate. Our first three vintages were sold to Hay Shed Hill Estate.
New experiences became challenging each season from planting to trellising to pruning. Hand picking became an experience we shared with only our closest friends and what sounded like a romantic weekend to many became solid hard work with lots of celebrating in the evenings.
The grapes proved to be of high standard and disease free . Slave labour won out in the long run. In 2001 we decided to bottle our own wine under the label of Peacetree Estate.
The name was taken from the olive branch symbolizing peace from the trees we planted in the scorching heat.

Wherever our wines are enjoyed around the world today they invariably impart a tangible trace of their idyllic place of origin - warm southern climes, ancient soils, healthful vines and years of skilled hands-on viticulture and winemaking
For over a quarter of a century we have striven to fuse these elements to produce superior wines of singular extraction, character and elegance. Our quest for heightened quality continues with each passing vintage
We are fortunate in that our beautiful Willyabrup vineyard is located in what is widely regarded as amongst the finest wine grape growing terrain in the world. Located in the heart of Western Australia's renowned Margaret River wine region, this far-flung locality has a viticultural pedigree second to none
The district is situated in the continent's deep south-west, a relatively young region unsullied by the impact of human population and development. Fresh air, clean seas, unspoiled country and fruitful earth have been simple, priceless qualities here for millennia
Surrounded by open water on three sides between Capes Leeuwin and Naturaliste, the wine region is almost completely free of pollutants and contaminants.

It was originally reserved for royalty and rites of passage rituals. It is characterised as a massage style by the graceful, rythmic, flowing forearm strokes. The body acts as a choregrapher while the masseur is the dancer who answers the needs of the body by movements which stretch and squeeze the muscles. The hands balance and harmonise the subtle energies of the body, thus the whole process results in a truly holistic form of bodywork. Whether you are physically tired with aching muscles and/or you are in need of nurturing, allow yourself to experience the balancing harmony of Huna Massage for total wellbeing of body, mind and spirit.

Rosily entered naval service at the age of 14 and joined the 1772 French expedition that discovered Kerguelen Island.He then accompanied Saint Allouran to examine the west coast of Western Australia
On 30 March 1772 at Shark Bay, Saint Allouran claimed possession of south-western Australia on behalf of France. Rosily was the man who prepared a chart showing where a parchment in a bottle that recorded this claim was buried along with two coins
Rosily also made the first chart of Flinders Bay in south-western Australia
In 1975 Rosily was placed in charge of the Hydrographic Office where he served as the Chief Hydrographer until 1826
It was in that position that he planned the expeditions to Western Australia by Freycinet and others to investigate the possibilty of establishing a French Colony
The colony never happened-events at home and a man called Napoleon Bonaparte directed French attention to Europe rather than the New World
The wine industry just had to wait!
The ROSILY vineyard story is only eleven years old but much has been accomplished. The property on Yelverton Road was bought by Mike Scott and Ken Allen in 1994
Twelve acres have been planted in the classic varieties that shine in the maritime climate of south-west Western Australia

The creation of the factory emerged when Louis and Edwina Scherini's three children, who suffered from eczema and dermatitis, were advised by Doctors not to use soap or shampoo.

The Bussell Highway in Western Australia’s south-west takes the traveller through some very pretty farmland on its way to the tourist mecca of Margaret River. Just short of that destination, you pass through Cowaramup, a quiet hamlet with the distinction of being closer to most of the Margaret River vineyards than Margaret River itself. It’s also far enough from its famous neighbour to be a haven from tourists. It’s here that you will find the small guesthouse named for the regions star crop, The Noble Grape Guesthouse, a colonial style 4.5 star "motel style" Bed and Breakfast set in an English cottage garden, some antique furnishings and ensuite bathrooms. It was built like a colonial country house, but only in recent times. So it has the warmth of old world charm, but lacks none of the modern conveniences of modern accomodation.
Many of the regions wineries feature superb restaurants in breathtaking surroundings. You can wander from one to the other during your stay. Remember also that The Noble Grape is not just convenient to the vineyards; it’s also a short drive from all the other attractions of the area including art galleries, gourmet cheesemakers, potteries, furniture workshops, antique stores, bushwalk trails and of course some of the world’s finest surf beaches and coastal scenery.

Thompson Estate is a family owned and operated boutique vineyard located in the heart of the renowned Wilyabrup sub-region of Margaret River.
Wilyabrup has the ideal number of sun exposure days per year for optimal ripening, and is surrounded by sea on three sides on the south west cape of Western Australia. This allows the cooling maritime breezes to keep the fruit cool and add intensity of flavours similar to the great years of Bordeaux in France. Thompson Estate and its immediate neighbours in Wilyabrup produce some of Australia?s icon status cabernets and chardonnays.
Thompson Estate?s first vineyard plantings of chardonnay and pinot noir were in 1997, followed by cabernet sauvignon in 1998. A total of 20 hectares is now under vine. A state of the art winery was built on site in 2008 in time for the 2009 vintage. This was designed by highly acclaimed winemaker Bob Cartwright (formerly of Leeuwin Estate), who has been Thompson Estate?s winemaker since 2006.
The combination of an ideal location, meticulous viticulture and sustainable practices together with close conversation between the viticulture and winemaking teams, consistently produces superior fruit for super premium winemaking. From the outset at Thompson Estate, the focus has been on high quality wine production and this has been recognized in a large number of wine show medals and accolades from the wine press. The most significant has been the recognition by James Halliday, Australia's premier wine critic, that Thompson Estate is a Five Red Star winery, placing it in the top echelon of Australian wineries.
Owners Peter and Jane Thompson were former part-owners of Pierro Wines and have been actively invovled with wine in the region for many years now. Peter also practises as a cardiologist and is the Deputy Director of the Western Australian Institute of Medical Research and a Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of Western Australia. Peter is a proponent of the health benefits of moderate alcohol intake. The heart health benefits of wine are widely accepted and there is a long tradition of medical involvement in wine making.
The Tintagel wine business is positioned as a boutique wine producer from the southern region of Margaret River.
The intensity of fruit flavour experienced in all the Tintagel wines is due to the cooler unique maritime climate of the southern Margaret River location and the ideal gravelly soils of the region.

Planted by Dr Tom Cullity in 1967, Vasse Felix was the first commercial vineyard and winery to be established in the Margaret River region and is family owned and operated by the Holmes a Court family.
Vasse Felix is one of the region's most welcoming estates with its contemporary cellar door, nationally-acclaimed restaurant and art gallery. Within the original underground cellar lives an archive of Vasse Felix and Margaret River wine history.
Margaret River enjoys long growing seasons, ancient soils and cooling sea breezes from the Southern and Indian Oceans which provide ideal viticultural conditions to craft consistent, elegant and complex wines with pronounced varietal character.
Vasse Felix, through Chief winemaker Virginia Willcock, has a clear focus on crafting wines best suited to the region with benchmark wines in Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc Semillon blends.

Located within the Natural Olive Oil Soap Factory is Vasse Virgin, a dedicated tasting room where you can sample a carefully selected range of olive oil varietals including estate and locally grown extra virgin olive oils and for all those olive lovers out there, a diverse array of both locally grown and internationally sourced table olives. Margaret River has a well deserved reputation for premium wines with a depth of flavour and intensity. The same conditions that go to produce these flavours in Margaret River grapes also produce wonderful flavour characteristics in olive oil - intense fruit characters with strong pungency and often a distinct peppery undertone. Taste the finest extra virgin olive oil and delectable preservative free food products using natural ingredients. A visit to the Vasse Virgin Olive Oil centre would not be complete without sampling the infamous Macadamia Pesto along with all the delicious gourmet condiments ranging from hand-made tapenades, vinaigrettes and dukka, including a unique range of fruit vinaigrettes all made by a local gourmet chef.
We aim to create an enduring family business which will override the fashions of the wine markets by making decisions based on the goal of producing the best quality wine from the varieties best suited to our chosen location
We are trying to replicate the best vineyards in the area, which were the pioneers, who created the original unirrigated vineyards which now produce the icon wines of Margaret River
The name Victory Point is derived from the almost forgotten site located at the end of our road Local historians have told us it was seconded and named by the district’s pioneers, either because of the famous victories that occurred on the cricket pitch that is still there, or more likely, because the area was used to train the local lads prior to their departure for WWII Community celebrations were held here, including the announcement of Peace at the end of the war
We chose the name Victory Point to represent the celebratory and community spirit of country Australia
The decision to not irrigate the vineyard was made at the initial planning stage in an effort to maximise the complexity of flavours from the fruit and the individual characteristics of the vineyard at each vintage
The theory being, that roots forced to go deep to find the water table will pass through a more complex array of mineral and vegetative matter and thus obtain a more complex combination of flavours
The subtleties and variation of each vintage are truly reflected in wines produced from unirrigated vines

From the beginning, owner Michael Wright’s vision has been to deliver a wine experience not previously seen in Margaret River. With more than 150 years of family farming in his blood, Michael’s fascination with agriculture, and in bringing produce to life, led him to the wine industry in 1991. He settled on this special site in Stevens Valley because it had the ideal characteristics to create wines that are at home amongst the world’s best.
The gravel soils, microclimate, aspect, and consistent maritime influence are the foundations of the Voyager Estate wine style. The viticulture and winemaking teams work as one to create distinctive wines from each vintage that display elegance, complexity and balance, and are always true to the individuality of the vineyard blocks.
Voyager Estate wines are consistently acknowledged by highly-acclaimed critics. For close to a decade, Voyager Estate’s Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot have received ratings of 93 points and above from Australian wine authority James Halliday and for the last three years he has classified Voyager Estate as an outstanding winery with a ’red’ five-star rating.
When you visit the Estate, you will discover you have arrived somewhere inspirational. Every aspect of the Estate, from the Cape Dutch architecture and award-winning restaurant to the stunning gardens and meticulous vineyards, is evidence of the Voyager Estate team's attention to detail and a credit to Michael Wright's vision. For Michael, bringing his produce to life has meant not only the creation of these sensational wines, but also bringing out the best in food and hospitality to share with the world.
We invite you to take a closer look at Voyager Estate by joining us on our Estate tour.
Step behind the scenes, share some of our stories and discover who and what make Voyager Estate tick.

The land now occupied by the Woody Nook Wines estate was formerly home to a sawmill and sleeper cutters. In 1978 Jeff and Wynn Gallagher, wishing to make a change from their floor-covering business in Perth, purchased the property with a vineyard in mind and began the arduous task of clearing and preparing the land. The first cuttings were planted in 1982 and the first crush took place in 1987, the first winery building having been built the year before. The Gallaghers constructed this and their new home from timber and rammed mud brick, both materials being available on the property. There are still about sixty acres of jarrah and marri forest forming a magnificent backdrop to the winery and restaurant. Peter and Jane Bailey became the proud new owners in May 2000 when at the end of 1999 Jeff and Wynn decided to retire to Busselton and put Woody Nook on the market. As part of the deal, Neil Gallagher stayed on as Winemaker/Viticulturist and was offered a shareholding in the business.

Ashbrook Estate was established in 1975, and is still owned and operated by the Devitt family, whose motivation is unchanged - to make the best possible wines at affordable prices. With abundant technical expertise, a rare and highly sought after location, an ideal climate and a well-equipped winery, Ashbrook has an enviable record for producing high quality wines. The sophisticated "lyre" trellis system, which maximises flavour quality, is widely used, and all fruit is hand-picked.
Ashbrook's white wines are recognised for their varietal purity and character, while the Cabernet Merlot (20% Merlot and Cabernet Franc) is a complex style with excellent cellaring potential. The traditional hand plunging of the red wines gently extracts optimum flavour and colour from the skins, while the slow maturation over two years in the finest French oak makes characterful wines which are emminently approachable in their youth. Only fruit grown on the Estate is used and all processes, including bottling, are carried out using our own excellent facilities.

At Brookland Valley we know that great wines are made in the vineyard. We are committed to using the best viticultural practices and vinification to retain maximum fruit flavour and complexity.
As well as beautiful wines we also have our gallery of wine arts for your perusal. This gallery demonstrates that the art of wine is more than merely grape growing, vinification or drinking.
The Gallery houses a collection of wine and food-related art and wine accesories.
ESTATE WINES:The classic grape varieties-Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot selected from specific blocks, that have consistently produced the best quality grapes, are devoted entirely to the production of the very best wines.
VERSE 1 WINES:The Verse 1 Vineyards are situated in three key sub-regional locations in the Margaret River Appellation Region. The best fruit from these sub-regions are cross-blended to provide depth and complexity in the wines.These include Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz and Cabernet Franc.
FLUTES RESTAURANT is situated on the lakeside at Brookland Valley Estate. Opening hours:12-3pm Wednesday - Sunday.
Since our inception Brookwood Estate has been about hard work and a never say die attitude; that has brought us to this point, being one the most popular boutique wineries in the Margaret river region; with our wines being praised by judges, patrons, wine writers and alike.
Trevor and Lyn Mann invested every cent they had in the land and in September 1996 the first plantings went into the ground. These plantings were from pruned canes that they gathered from only the best vineyards in the region and they themselves turned these into root stock to grow their vineyard.
All Brookwood Estate wines are made from estate grown fruit that is grown by Trevor Mann. His vineyard has been used as a showpiece for our guests from all over the world and also for other vineyard owners and operators.
The wine is all made by Lyn Mann and her daughter Bronnley; it is made in small batches and is processed immediately as it is harvested. We crush less than a tonne at a time and all of this is usually done by family and close friends in the middle of the night so we can operate the cellar door and café the next day.
Last year we made around 2000 cases of wine and this sold only to select restaurants and through our cellar door.
As all the wines are made by hand we are very selective and can be on how we distribute our products.
As we move into the next generation, we will continue our family traditions and continue to strive to create beautiful handcrafted products so our friend’s, family and customers can enjoy the fruits of our labour.
Choose from a Luxury Rammed Earth Spa Bungalow (indoor spa) for couples, or a Limestone Bungalow, for small groups and families (one has a spa bath on the deck outside). All bungalows have dishwashers.
BREAKFAST BASKETS $75 Full of local and organic food.

Cambray Sheep Cheese is a family owned and operated business.
Since opening in 2005, nearly every cheese has won gold or 1st place.
Each cheese is hand crafted to traditional, mainly French-style recipes. Some are cured for many months in temperature and humidity controlled cheese caves where they require constant attention with daily turning.
Frequent hand washing of some cheeses gives them a very mellow flavour. Others are coated and some are left to form a natural rind. The way the cheeses are cured gives them their unique flavour.
Health benefits of ewes milk cheese include high levels of calcium and vitamin D (up to 3 times that of goats and cows milk), easy digestibility and a different lactose protein allowing anyone allergic to cow milk products able to enjoy ewes milk cheese. The fats in ewes milk are mainly the good fats so if you
have a cholesterol problem, small amounts of ewes milk cheese are okay for a
treat.

Our warm and friendly Cellar Door staff welcome guests 7 days a week from 10:00 to 4:30. Visitors are encouraged to taste through our range of available wines, including museum stock and cellar door exclusives. After some tasting, relax in our native bushland gardens or play a game of Pétanque (a version of boules) with family and friends on our purpose built court.

In the far south west corner of Western Australia, a broad peninsula projects into the Indian Ocean.
Running north to south along its western edge, between Cape Naturaliste and Cape Leeuwin, is a windswept limestone ridge, perched on a basement of ancient and resistant granite rocks.
This long thin strip of land forms the backbone of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park, and
is the setting of the Cape to Cape Walk Track, a 140 kilometre long trail.
Hikers may complete it from end to end, or sample short sections, revelling in the magnificent coastal scenery, heathlands and forests of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Ridge. Many points along the Track are easily accessible for short or longer walks.
The Friends of the Cape to Cape Track Inc was formed in 1998 to help establish and maintain the track, increase appreciation of it and its vulnerability, encourage community 'ownership' and to further the principles of minimum-impact bushwalking and sustainable environmental use.
For more details and an overview map of the Track, and for details of the 'Friends', have a look at our website (click above), or e-mail us with specific enquiries. Call in to the Margaret River Visitor Centre for our brochure and The Cape to Cape Track Guidebook ($21.95), and for help in booking accommodation along the way.

Christian Fletcher was born in Perth, Western Australia in 1965. An early introduction to the workings of the camera and a fondness for the freedom of wide open spaces combined to see him where he is today. A decision to move to Dunsborough in the south west of Western Australia as the incentive to pursue photography as a career.
Everybody has their own idea about what is or what makes a good photograph. I believe simplicity is the key and I try to leave out more than I include, landscapes can be full of distracting shapes and colours so composition is very important to the overall feel of an image.
Light is the next important ingredient. Light is everything, without it photography would not exist. With a combination of good technique, good equipment and an eye for composition uninteresting objects can be transformed into things of beauty.
My work is influenced by the shapes and movement of the Leeuwin Naturaliste coast. I am lucky to live in a relatively untouched part of the world surrounded by a variety of landscapes and constantly changing light conditions.

On arrival, visitors can see through bi-fold windows, which staff can open to encourage involvement in brewery tours. The tours emphasise the focus on high grade, quality ingredients and the implementation of the 1516 Beer Purity Law. This law states that the beer is brewed using only malted barley, or wheat, hops to add bitterness and aroma, yeast and water.

So the sale of beer on site is complemented with a menu focussed on local produce. The menu features a range of pizzas, platters, dips, fish & chips, lamb cutlets, chicken satay, leek and goat's cheese tart, beef and porter pie along with spiced prawns and soup of the day. Being family-friend there are also a number of kid?s menu items to choose from. CBC provide gluten free and vegetarian options and are happy to alter menu items to suit individual dietary requirements. The menu changes seasonally however we keep some menu items on the list the entire time ? if we got rid of the Cow Special Pizza we could instigate local riots!

Planning permission allows CBC to conduct up to 25 functions a year, 10 of which can cater for up to 350 guests. The normal daily opening hours of 10am to 6pm can be extended until midnight to cater for these functions.

A Brief History Winemaking began on the Cullen property in Margaret River more than 40 years ago. Studies in the early 1960's showed that Margaret River had some very special qualities. The climate was particularly suited to growing Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. On the advice of eminent agronomist Dr John Gladstones, Dr. Kevin and Diana Cullen planted a trial acre of vines at Wilyabrup in 1966. The encouraging results of this led to the planting of 18 acres of vines on their sheep and cattle farm in 1971.
Winemaking While Kevin Cullen supervised vineyard and winery activities, Diana Cullen was the sole winemaker until 1986, when she was joined by daughter Vanya, who assumed prime responsibility in 1989. In 2000, Vanya became the first woman and first West Australian to be awarded the Qantas Australian Winemaker of the Year. Vanya has also been awarded the UK Drinks Magazine "Woman of the Year" 2008 and "Green Personality of the Year" 2011 for her efforts in sustainability.
Biodynamics Since the Estate was planted, chemical intervention was minimal and the family's concern for the environment paramount. In 1998 the change to total organic viticulture was made. Diana and Vanya went intuitively towards healing the soil by putting back what had been taken out. As a result, the Cullen Vineyard gained A Grade Organic Certification in 2003, followed by A Grade Biodynamic Certification in 2004 (Vineyard) and 2008 (Winery) by the Biological Farmers Association of Australia.
Awards In 2005, the iconic Diana Madeline Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot was elevated to the top Langton's classification category of "Exceptional", and in 2010 The Decanter World Wine Awards, presented Cullen Wines the top prize for it's 2007 Kevin John Chardonnay. The most recent of accolades is for the 2009 Diana Madeline, awarded Wine of the Year in Jeremy Oliver's The Australian Wine Annual, 2012 with a score of 98 points.
Cullen Dining The Cullen Restaurant overlooks the historic vineyard. The building's unique construction from granite and timber, blends harmoniously with the surroundings and provides a relaxing place to enjoy a glass of wine, lunch or a coffee. In keeping with the organic/biodynamic philosophy in the vineyard, all food in the restaurant is prepared using fresh, biodynamic and organic produce and is sourced from our own garden and select local producers.
