This is the venture of Joe Costanzo and Cindy Heath, Joe having grapegrowing in his DNA.
He was raised on his parents' 20ha vineyard in NSW on the Murray River, the family business selling grapes to Brown Brothers, Seppelt, Bullers and Miranda Wines. By the age of 17 he had decided to follow in their footsteps, working full-time in vineyards, and studying viticulture for five years.
He and Cindy searched for the perfect vineyard, and in 2011 finally acquired one that had been planted between 1993 and '94 to 1.5ha each of sauvignon blanc and chardonnay, and 3ha of pinot noir.
