Treasury Wine Estates – Woodbury Vineyard, High Eden
First planted in 1969, the Woodbury Vineyard has been forward-thinking since its inception – at the time, it was Australia’s largest contoured vineyard, designed specifically to mitigate soil erosion and moisture loss. That forward-thinking impulse continues to this day, with Woodbury now home to trials for autonomous spraying units, innovative machine-harvesting applications, initiatives to restore connection to country amongst Peramangk people, and a vine retraining system seeking to undo the damage wrought by traditional trellising practices. This seventy-eight hectare vineyard, managed by Angus Davidson, is planted to shiraz, riesling, cabernet sauvignon and gewürztraminer, with fruit from the vineyard forming the basis of key Treasury wines including Penfolds’ ‘Bin 51’ Riesling, Leo Buring’s iconic ‘Leonay’ Riesling, and Pepperjack’s Sparkling Shiraz.
