At Grace Farm we have a deep commitment to understanding and enhancing the natural attributes of the property’s unique location, and to that end we have taken the opportunity to have this formally recognised through Sustainable Winegrowing Australia (SWA) certification.
The team at Grace Farm Wines is thrilled to announce the completion of yet another successful vintage! The 2023 season has been nothing short of spectacular, particularly for the white varieties. The Viticulturist, Tim Quinlan, has shared his thoughts on the season, and we're excited to share them with you.

The palate is well supported by a delicate mineral acidity that drives the wine and provides a long crisp finish.

Finishing touches to the tasting room involved timber milled at Grace Farm from declining or fallen mature trees, in particular the lovely seasoned marri lining boards behind the bar and the bar itself, created by well-known local cabinet maker Jake Jakovich.

The Giant Spider Orchid or Caladenia excelsa now features on Grace Farm’s label. This rare orchid, whose flowers are the biggest of any spider orchid, can be found along the Leeuwin Ridge in spring. Like our wine, the Caladenia excelsa is local in character, rare in beauty and elegant in profile.
