Description
50 acres of vines, spanning across two stunning sites, enables Boat O’Craigo to produce outstanding estate grown wines across a range of noble varieties.
The Vineyards
The cooler, more sheltered vineyard site nestled in the foothills of the Black Spur Ranges has alluvial river gravel soils and has perfect growing conditions for their early ripening varieties including Gewurztraminer, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir being the only red vines.
A warmer site on the western edge of the valley with its rich black volcanic, basalt soil, North East facing slope, giving it maximum sun is the home of their Black Cameron Shiraz, Braveheart Cabernet Sauvignon and several other red varietals even Grenache.
The Family
Founded by Margaret and Steve Graham,
Boat O’ Craigo is a tight-knit family business.
Spanning two generations of the Graham family,
it is their labour of love that keeps the wine flowing.
