"We are a boutique winery based on the Bellarine Peninsula just outside Geelong. We have approximately 12 acres of grapes planted including Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz, which suits our coastal climate. We also source Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz grapes from the Harcourt Valley near Bendigo. We look forward to welcoming you to our vineyard" Will Derham, Vigneron.

All wines are made on site in the small hands on facility. Banks Road also make wine for some of the other vineyards around area. They are very passionate about their wine and enjoy the closeness to their produce that being a small winery gives them.

From bud burst in the spring to bottling the wine, sometimes years later, they see each vintage evolve.

Their wines have received many accolades at shows and in reviews by wine writers.

Their recently completed cellar door is open from Thursday to Sunday 11.00am - 5.00pm or by appointment. As well as tasting each of the wines you can enjoy a light lunch and a glass of wine whilst enjoying the view over the vineyard to the Rip.
