Australia's First Families of Wine (AFFW)

We share the same beliefs and real passion for creating wines of genuine character – from the finest sparklings to the richest dessert wines, from iconic single vineyards to multi-regional blends.

We are custodians of some of Australia’s finest vineyards, most famous wine names and some irreplaceable history. All of the families are multi generational, some have made wine for a hundred and fifty years, some of us began more recently.

In this day and age we believe that people prefer to relate to real products from real people, that is our essence and we have come together to get that message across.

Welcome to Australia’s First Families of Wine – we hope to catch up with you for a glass of wine and a chat soon.
