Montara Wines

Montara Wines is owned by the Stapleton family, who acquired the vineyard in 2006 after a long history in the Australian export and agribusiness industries. They chose the property for its scenic location and suitability for premium wine production. This dynamic group of six siblings has given Montara a youthful exuberance, where tradition meets a new era of winemaking. They are firm believers that wine brings people together, so you will often find the Stapletons celebrating life with beautiful food, music, and wine. They hope to encapsulate this experience in every bottle crafted.

The vines grow in well-drained, rich red loam soil over a gravel/shale base. The total area under vine is 20 hectares, and plantings include shiraz, pinot noir, and riesling (all of which are 40+ year old vines), as well as chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, cabernet sauvignon, and merlot.

Situated 200 kilometers west of Melbourne in the incredible Grampians region, Montara is a feast for the eyes and the spirit. With its captivating scenery of panorama of plains, mountains, vines, and old-world charm of the Ararat gold rush days, Montara Winery is an unforgettable escape.

Our estate includes a spectacular cellar door and restaurant area as well as onsite camping and accommodation, making the perfect get away.
