Strange Birds in my Backyard

Welcome to 2012 blog followers! After the hardship of 2011 it's time to get outdoors and have some fun.

Why don't you discover the Strange Birds in your backyard. Byron-based sommelier David Stevens-Castro certainly believes it's a great idea.

David has sung the praises of the Granite Belt and our Strange Bird Alternative Wine Trail in Winestate Magazine's popular Wine of the Year Special Edition.


"The Granite Belt is a treasure trove of passionate winemakers from all over the world, confidently experimenting with exciting varieties in an exceptional environment that has huge potential. It is unlikely to remain a secret much longer, so now is probably the best time to find your favourite strange bird."
