Shark Point Wines

The Zantvoort family planted its first grape vines in 1989, partly on historic dairy land unused for half a century and partly on virgin bush soil. The unspoiled Moorooduc region soils were generous, and the unique meso-climate between the Peninsula’s two bays promised all kinds of winemaking adventures.

Further plantings nearby at 1675 Stumpy Gully Road – known as the “Crooked Post” block – were established during the 1990s leading to a further 25 hectares, all planted to red varieties. This was followed by the establishment of the Shaw Lane vineyard, and then the Black Night block.

Stumpy Gully’s answer to the “Small Batch” release, comes a distinct range of Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Chardonnay & Shiraz. Smaller quantities, select parcels of fruit, and a unique approach taken with the wine making, offer some hidden gems from Stumpy Gully Vineyard.
