The "Brangayne" and "Ynys Witrin" vineyards lie on the north eastern slopes of the extinct volcano Mount Canobolas, near Orange in New South Wales Explorer Country, Central Ranges, one of the highest and coldest grape districts in Australia.
Often under snow in winter and mild in summer, the cold climate offers ideal conditions for the production of premium grapes, combining generous fruit flavour, acid and length in wines of intensity and elegance. The climate is similar to the Champagne region in France, with grapes hanging on the vines often well into May, producing a subtle and highly complex character in the wines. The long ripening period and the deep, rich volcanic soil, position Brangayne among the few vineyards in Australia capable of producing distinctive cold climate wines of high calibre.
