Sustainability

About

Our Practices

We employ a wide range of environmentally sustainable practices in our vineyard and winery. This helps minimise the impact on our land and provide real and tangible benefits for us as grape growers and winemakers.

Water Sustainability

We have an EPA-approved program that recycles 100% of our winery and brewery waste water and winery solids such as grape skins and stalks. We then re-use the water as irrigation and solid waste as compost in our vineyards.

Solar Energy

We have a solar energy plant that is situated on the roof of our winery. This solar plant generates 99 kw, which caters for approximately 30% of our business's energy requirements.

Biodiversity & Re-Vegetation

We have planted native trees and shrubs over the property to improve the biodiversity of our land and the health of the Polish Hill River catchment which flows through the property.

Owner and Managing Director, Andrew Pike, founded and is still actively involved in the Hill River Natural Resources Management Group, which has worked to re vegetate degraded areas of land and establish natural wetlands with native species of flora.

Sustainable Alternatives to Chemicals

Chemical usage is kept to a minimum. Wherever possible we use organic or elemental fungicides and biological forms of weed control, such as the planting of cover crops and using straw mulch under vines. The use of straw mulch and cover crops also has the benefit of reducing soil moisture loss through evaporation.
