Description
Enjoy Heathcote’s best kept secret when you visit the cellar door at Munari Wines situated just 7 minutes north of Heathcote. Step inside the historic, beautifully renovated stables and enjoy a full range of wines. Established in 1992, Adrian & Deborah Munari made the tree change from school teaching to grape growing and never looked back. Originally producing a Shiraz & a red blend (now known as the Schoolhouse Red) the portfolio has increased to include all styles of wine including sparkling, white, red and dessert wines. The vineyards are irrigated from our own dams and include the infamous Heathcote Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon & the newly grafted Italian grape, Sangiovese. Vermentino & Grenache grapes are sourced from nearby vineyards to complete the range and all wines are made in the winery onsite which was once the shearing shed for the working sheep farm that is now Munari Wines. The Cellar Door is open Friday – Sunday but a tasting can be arranged for another day if you call ahead.
