ABOUT US.

 

Bluestone Acres was established in 2000. We are a small family owned and operated vineyard located in the picturesque Yarra Valley.

 

The name Bluestone Acres was chosen because of a vein of basalt which runs through the property. It is particularly prevalent in the sauvignon blanc block and adds a touch of minerality, enhancing the wine.

 

The vineyard is run using environmentally sustainable viticulture practices. The use of chemical sprays is kept to the bare minimum required to avoid crop damage from fungal diseases. Pesticides are not used at all; neither are manufactured fertilizers. The vines are watered from rainfall only and we farm the land sustainably. No artificial fertilizers are used, no pesticides are sprayed and the vines are not irrigated.


Low crop levels of good quality grapes are obtained by judicious pruning and careful hand harvesting. Grapes are harvested at the optimal peak of flavour, sugar and acid balance.


We produce premium wines that reflect the individuality of our vineyard.
