"At Tobin Wines, we talk about growing our wine, rather than making the wine. 

Our winemaking philosophy is undeniably ‘old world’ — all respect is paid to the vineyard, the vine, and the pursuit of perfection in grape quality, with little — if any — reverence paid to the winemaker or winemaking process. Each grape variety is given the spotlight to truely reveal its own unique flavour.'

​

“No wine maker is gifted enough to make those wonderful flavours & aromas — all of the work happens out there, in the vineyard” — Adrian Tobin

Ballandean Estate blends the passion of five generations to deliver premium cool climate wines. Our vineyards are located in the heart of the Granite Belt, over 800m above sea level.

Wine has been made on the Estate since 1932, while the cellar door was opened to the public in 1972.

Peggy & Robert Channon have been handcrafting the region’s finest wines since 1998, and are incredibly proud to produce all their award winning wines in their own vineyard and winery.

​

The winery is blessed with amazing soils, elevation, stunning views and a great water supply.  A stroke of luck was that back in 1998 the nursery supplying the vines couldn’t supply the chardonnay they had ordered so they had to plant verdelho, and the rest is history.
