Anyone who has had the pleasure of meeting our Win

Anyone who has had the pleasure of meeting our Winemaker Kathy will know that she is always cold! That’s why we’re always surprised when she jets off to the Northern Hemisphere to complete a second vintage each year. For the past four years Kathy has undertaken a vintage in Oregon (USA), arriving there in late Autumn and staying well into the cold winter days. Head to the link in our bio to read Kathy’s latest blog where she details exactly what keeps her going back year after year - we think it might be something to do with her passion for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir! ⁣

It’s back! After the popularity of our first rel

It’s back! After the popularity of our first release of Two Barrel Batch back in 2018, Rob decided, why not make another one? As most of you will know, the Yarra Valley isn’t exactly known for fortified wine, so we had to look a little further North to bring this idea to fruition. ⁣
⁣
A phone call later to a winemaker mate in Rutherglen and Rob had arranged to swap some of his Pinot Noir for some Muscat and so, Two Barrel Batch was reborn. ⁣
⁣
Available now in limited quantities exclusively through our Cellar Door, open 7 days a week, 10am - 5pm, or call us at the winery to arrange delivery. ⁣

We are thrilled to have recently welcomed Mel to our team as our new Cellar Door Manager! Joining us all the way from Sydney, Mel previously worked in the dairy industry, until she realised wine is more fun than milk! After spending several years exploring and blogging about wine, Mel decided to jump in head first and spent five years working and training in wineries in Barossa (SA), Marlborough (NZ), Rioja (Spain) and Sonoma Valley (USA). She then worked as a Wine Ambassador in Canada and marketing in Sydney before heading back home to Victoria. Be sure to call into Cellar Door and enjoy a tasting with Mel and experience her passion for wine for yourself. ⁣⁣

“Be bold, be brave, show your true colours”.⁣ ⁣
Here, one of Rob’s favourite sayings has been translated into liquid. Fruit driven and instantly likeable, our True Colours range is the perfect introduction to Rob Dolan Wines. An honest and perfect reflection of the man and the land, these quaffable wines are made to be enjoyed today - either on their own, or with a great meal. ⁣⁣

For winemaker and Dolan prodigy Ben Dolan, 2019 wa

For winemaker and Dolan prodigy Ben Dolan, 2019 was a huge year and one we’re sure he won’t forget anytime soon. Undertaking three vintages across three continents in one year is no easy feat. It is Ben’s fierce passion for winemaking (particularly Pinot Noir) that saw him take on 2019 vintages in the Hunter Valley (NSW, Australia), Central Otago (New Zealand) and Burgundy (France). As much as we love seeing our team members grow and accomplish their goals we’re extremely excited to have Ben’s smiley face back home and can’t wait to see what’s in his new bag of tricks for Vintage 2020! ⁣
