Idyll Wine Co is sited at the Idyll Vineyards, planted in the 1960’s by Daryll and Nini Sefton. Some of the original vines still remain while the vineyard was redeveloped in order to include the varietals of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Over the past many years, the winery has been developed extensively and that has increased its capacity. The fruit for the wines comes from the regions of New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. The wines are made on-site and with exact specifications to ensure the high quality of the wines is maintained.
