Your host Joe Evans invites you to join him for a personal, guided wine session available everyday between 11 am and 4 pm. Joe is the owner, winemaker, viticulturist and everything in between and with his wife Sue, carefully tends his grapes from vine to bottle.
The vineyard is rain fed, the winery is solar powered and the delivery van is an 100% electric Nissan Leaf named ‘Zero’ that is charged by solar during the day and plugged into the winery and house to provide power at night. The first winery to use this technology in Australia.
Ballycroft ‘s wine is made as a reflection of their sustainable vineyard, the terroir and the individual vintage. They let the fruit tell the story.
