Wineries in the Porongurups

Porongurup boasts many boutique, family-owned vineyards and a winery.

You can meet the people who grow the grapes as they take a hands-on approach to crafting their wine.

A distinct cool climate sub-region of the Great Southern, the exemplary wines are renowned for intense fruit flavours. Many awards have been bestowed on a range of wines from the area. The vineyards are located in beautiful surrounds with most boasting spectacular mountain views.

Castle Rock Estate

2015 James Halliday Winemaker of the Year

Castle Rock Estate is nestled on the eastern slopes of the Porongurup Range and is named after a prominent nearby landmark, in the Great Southern wine region of Western Australia. The vineyard has a cool and elevated north-easterly aspect, resulting in intensely flavoured wines, particularly Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Castle Rock Estate was established in 1983 by Angelo and Wendy Diletti and is now run by their son Rob.

Cheese grazing boxes available at the cellar door to enjoy with your wine tasting or to take-away.

Open daily 10am-4:30pm

Duke's Vineyard

2019 Halliday Wine of the Year

Duke’s Vineyard is the manifestation of Duke and Hilde Ranson’s dream, who in 1999 planted the first vines of their ‘retirement project.’ Their vision and the resulting, award-winning wines are now being carried into the next chapter by winemaker Ben Cane and his wife Sarah Date. The cellar door offers sweeping views of the Porongurup and Stirling Ranges for visitors to take in while sampling some of Duke’s outstanding wines and browsing the art in the Gallery.

Montefalcon Vineyard

Boutique, family owned winery producing 100% preservative free natural wines

Montefalcon Vineyard is a boutique family owned and operated venture, located in the Porongurup Wine Region of the Great Southern in Western Australia, between the Stirling Ranges and Albany, just east of Mt. Barker. We farm with sustainable, organic and biodynamic methods.

Our wines are 100% natural, made without the addition of chemicals or preservatives, the way we believe they are meant to be.

The varieties we have chosen to grow in specific locations according to the soil type ensure our wines will have excellent expressions of terroir ~ the French notion of how soil and micro-climate influence vines and form a wine’s character.

Shepherd’s Hut Wines

Established in 1996, a family business with a focus on quality over quantity

Our philosophy at Shepherd’s Hut is to produce high quality fruit for premium table wines. The emphasis is on quality before quantity and this is achieved through a no compromise approach to our viticultural management. The end yield per hectare is limited to levels that allow each variety to best develop its characteristic flavours.

We have 18ha under vines including Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc.
