Be a vigneron without investing millions of dollars – Adopt-a-Vine®! You decide the level of commitment you want to make. After all, parenting a vine is serious stuff!
Choose your level of involvement
Adopt-a-Vine® for a 3-year period and choose your level of involvement. You can prune your vine in winter (with a lesson from the vineyard manager, of course) and pick the grapes from your vine at vintage.
The vine is tagged with a personalised hang-tag bearing the name of the owner and date of adoption. Adoptive owners will receive an Adoption Certificate stating the variety of vine and date of adoption, a 'My Vine: Adopt-a-Vine®' newsletter and a vineyard map
showing the exact location of the vine. There is an option to receive a bottle of wine produced from the grapes where your Adopt-a-Vine® is located. Additional offers will be made to Adopt-a-Vine® parents at a special discount.
Visit your vine – talk to your vine!
You have visiting rights as an Adopt-a-Vine® Parent. Great for picture opportunities. Image a picture of you pruning your vine or picking grapes from your vine or just having a chat with your Adopt-a-Vine®. Adoptive owners will be updated twice a year on the seasonal progress of their Adopt-a-Vine® with a picture.
Perfect for gift-giving
It is the ideal gift for the person who has everything, as a unique corporate gift, as a quirky birthday or Christmas gift or as a memorial for a loved one.
Hands-On Days in the Vineyard
Throughout the year Adoptive Parents are invited to get involved in the vineyard experience. Learn more about the ‘vine-to-wine’ process through Hands-On Days.
January is canopy management and crop estimation; April/May is vintage when you can pick your grapes and be part of our annual vintage; July is pruning day – learn all the skills of pruning; and October is Spring preparation day – water, soil, chemicals. Experience a day in a vineyard!
