OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe great wines are created in the vineyard. Through year round hard work and vigilant hands on viticultural practices we strive to deliver exceptional Estate grown fruit to the winery and only source fruit from the best regional vineyards with the same high standards.
At Oakvale we recognise that winemaking is both an art and a science and that state-of-the-art- technology can work hand in hand with traditional winemaking practices.
“Great wines are created in the vineyard...”
We seek to add complexity and richness and finesse to every bottle we craft by adopting traditional and innovative winemaking techniques. Having shaped the history of wine in the Hunter Valley for nearle 120 years, we are confident that Oakvale will continue to deserve its place as a leading winery well into the future.
