Winmark Wines has a rich viticultural history, with a vineyard that has produced extraordinary fruit for more than 50 years.
But did you know they also have a sensational art gallery that is home to some renowned Australian and international artists and a Sculpture Walk that provides the perfect opportunity to stretch your legs in the spring sunshine?
More than just a premium Chardonnay producer, Winmark is a destination in Broke that is well worth the visit, and with Christmas fast approaching, you may just find a bottle or two of Winmark wines, a painting, sculpture, print or piece of jewellery that could all be wrapped under your tree! Owner and vigneron Karin Adcock, the former founder of Pandora Australia, never lost her passion for fine jewellery, and it was not long before the beauty of the Chardonnay leaves inspired a unique collaboration with TuaMea to produce exquisite pieces ranging from silver cufflinks to earrings, bracelets and sterling silver charms.
Karin has also curated a generous gallery offering framed posters to original paintings, superb wood grazing platters to small table sculptures, pottery vases to ceramic collectables.
And, of course, there’s the Chardonnays!For half a century, the Winmark site has grown exceptional fruit with a proud history of producing highly acclaimed Chardonnay. Winmark’s recent win of the NSW Small Winemakers Best Young Chardonnay trophy is just the start of the praise for the Chardonnays being produced since Karin purchased the former Pooles Rock property and re-established the vineyard with a wine team of genuine and award-winning experts.
For the savvy wine enthusiast, the iconic Winmark 7 2 Chardonnay is the perfect addition to add to their collection. The icon ‘seven two’ heralds the move to produce a Chardonnay exclusively using premium fruit from block 4, planted with Penfolds clone vines in 1972.
With Winmark focused purely on producing Chardonnay, the Winmark 7 2 Chardonnay keeps fine company with Rusty’s Run, Winmark Expressions and the Single Vineyard Reserve Chardonnay.
Enjoy a tasting at their Cellar Door, explore the Art gallery and sculpture walk with a barista coffee in hand. You won’t regret it! Open 7 days; visit www.winmarkwines.com.au for more information and opening times.
