An interest in wine developed from a misspent youth living and working in parts of Europe where wine was an everyday beverage. Classic and everyday wines were enjoyed in different parts of Europe and vineyards, regions and wineries were visited. From a background in farming in south east Queensland it was a revelation that wines of perceived quality, classic wines, could be produced that far from the equator with such a variable climate. Over this time a belief developed that classic wines of a world standard could be produced in Australia. Fruit concentration, complexity, balance, length and sense of place are at the heart of great wine. These are characters which can be formed only in the vineyard. Our primary task at Tambo wine is to grow grapes with these characters which express the site and to maintain the essence of this fruit character to the bottle.
