Our visit this month was to a little known boutique winery called Willem Kurt, just outside of Beechworth. Set high on a hill with great views, Daniel the owner, labourer and winemaker told us the history of his vineyard.
Having worked in the Yarra Valley and at Gapsted winery he wanted to branch out on his own, and so in 2017 purchased the land and started planting his grapes.
He makes four styles of wine, Vermentino, Chardonnay, Rose and Syrah with Sangiovese coming soon.

Our very enjoyable lunch was had at the historic Nicholas Hotel that has an amazing collection of old Beechworth photos. A bit of retail shopping followed.
Next month we will be visiting Eagle Range Estate Vineyard at 228 Happy Valley Road, Ovens, with our lunch being free choice in Myrtleford.
