Description
The Cassegrain family began winemaking in France in 1643, combining a heritage of French grape growing and winemaking traditions with Australian technology to produce wines that are authentic to style
Descended from an old wine making family in France, Cassegrain Wines uses a rich knowledge of traditional French winemaking methods combined with modern Australian technique and technology to create a diverse portfolio of wines.
For over thirty years, Cassegrain has been led by industry pioneer John Cassegrain, whose French heritage and unique wine-making experience has shaped the distinctive house style
