Our decision to adopt organic and biodynamic farming methods was driven by our desire to develop the character and authenticity of the grapes to make the best wine possible. This was a full commitment to crafting wines representative of the vintage, variety and vineyard from where they are grown. We believe the best way to achieve this is by making sure our vineyard is as healthy and as sustainable as it can possibly be.

Here at Southbrook, we plant cover crops like mixed clovers and grasses that infuse nutrients into the soil and attract beneficial insects. Biodiversity – meaning the number and variety of species found within an ecosystem – is essential to maintain the balance of our vineyard, and creates richer soils with more nutrients.
