Established in 1860 Tahbilk is one of Australia’s most beautiful & historic wineries. Located in the Nagambie Lakes region of central Victoria (120kms north of Melbourne), one of the nation’s premium viticultural areas, the property comprises some 1,214 hectares of rich river flats with a frontage of 11 kms to the Goulburn River and 8 kms of permanent backwaters & creeks.
The vineyard comprises 200 hectares of vines including the French Rhone Valley whites of Marsanne, Viognier & Roussanne; the Rhone reds – Shiraz, Grenache & Mourvedre; along with traditional varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc & Verdelho.
Vineyard plantings extend back to Tahbilk’s founding with original pre-phylloxera Shiraz vines still surviving from 1860 – an eponymous wine produced from them since 1979.
Tahbilk is further blessed with an abundance of further “old vine” plantings including Shiraz from 1933 (the prime source for Tahbilk’s ‘Eric Stevens Purbrick’ Shiraz releases), Cabernet Sauvignon back to 1949 and Marsanne from 1927 (a “sister” white release to the 1860 Vines Shiraz produced from them).
Harvest commences in early March and continues for five to six weeks with approximately 1,600 tonnes (red & white) grapes processed.
Total production is over 100,000 cases with just over 20% being exported to the key markets of U.S.A., United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand, Switzerland and the Scandinavian countries.

The Murray Street Vineyards’ winemaking philosophy begins in the vineyard where we cultivate such classic varieties as Shiraz, Mature, Grenache, Viognier, Marsanne and Semillon.
Our winemaking practices incorporate Old World techniques and modern technology to help define the future winemaking style of the Barossa as an approachable and generously flavoured offering.
We manage our vineyard estates in a sustainable way, mindful of their environmental responsibility and of leaving a healthy legacy for future generations. This approach extends to the revegetation of the areas surrounding the vineyards with extensive planting of native flora appropriate to the area.
There is no better place to admire this natural beauty than the beautiful surrounds of the Tasting Room, located conveniently on Murray Street in the hamlet of Greenock.

Our Wines
Since Frank Potts was captivated by the potential of the fertile Langhorne Creek region to create ripe, full-bodied wine styles, the Potts family has been following an over 160-year-old tradition of innovative grape growing and winemaking.
History & Passion
The philosophy of the Bleasdale winemaking team is to capture the essence of what makes Langhorne Creek red wines so attractive – vibrancy, harmony and texture. Cabernet Sauvignon has elegance and captivating depth of flavour, Shiraz is a ripe fruit style with refined cool climate spice elements and Malbec is perfumed and finely structured.
Bleasdale is rich in history and producing some of Australia’s most exciting, consistently impressive premium wines. Whether a Bleasdale wine is $12 or $70, whether it is a Sparkling Shiraz, a single vineyard Malbec or the Frank Potts Cabernet, it conveys a story in the glass that substantiates its history, diversity and increasingly, its pedigree.
