HARVEY RIVER vineyard
Harvey, Geographe
In 1928 on the banks of the Harvey River the first seeds were sown. Almost 100-years and three generations later our family’s love of the land and region is as fervent as ever.
The varietal diversity and prevailing geographical properties of the Geographe Bay can be tasted in every bottle of our estate’s wines.
Nestled behind the orange orchards, lies the 50-acre vineyard, producing traditional varieties like Chardonnay and Shiraz, with alternative varieties making way with Barbera and Montepulciano.
In addition to the large Harvey vineyard, Harvey River Estate also works closely with and supports a selection of growers from across the Geographe and Margaret River Wine Regions.
Fruits from around Harvey, the flats of Hithergreen, and the country backdrops of Yallingup have been sourced from trusted partners over the years, to create their accoladed line-up of well-rounded wines.
Fishbone wines vineyard
Wilyabrup, Margaret River
In 2014 we discovered a 165-acre site in Wilyabrup, which showed great potential as a winery. Formerly a dairy farm, transforming the property into a vineyard was an absolute labour of love.
Today, more than 22-acres are under vines and perfectly positioned to let the crisp and coastal properties of the Margaret River region shine through every drop of wine we make under the Fishbone and Joseph River Estate labels.
The gently sloping terrain of the Wilyabrup estate is a classic pea gravel vineyard. The well-drained soil and north facing plots are home to a number of classic and alternative varieties.
Nine hectares of Chardonnay and Cabernet are grown across the vineyards throughout the property. Smaller plots of Vermentino, Pinot Noir, Tempranillo and Malbec also call the Fishbone estate at Wilyabrup home.
We practise minimal intervention wine making, so the true properties of the fruit are featured at the front of every wine.
