Heathcote Estate was planted in 1999 on the ancient Cambrian soils that define the heart of the region.
The Kirby family established Heathcote Estate with the sole objective to make one wine – a single vineyard shiraz. Over the past decade, led by winemaker Tom Carson, the label has forged a reputation for wines of exceptional character and longevity.
