The Drift Estate is an education in generational thinking. It’s a family focus. Sometimes, it’s a frank reflection of personal failure. But the mistakes and disappointments are only the slippery steps up a beautiful mountain slope. This is farming, after all. When you pause for breath and look around at the view, the stumbling is forgotten. You realise, you are still going forward and upward for all the right reasons. What a privilege. Your eyes and nose and lungs are flooded with freshness and this seeps into your soul. Your weariness disappears. You feel more. You sense more. You can’t help smiling, and it starts in your heart. Life, and this clamorous endeavour called living, are put into perspective.
The Drift Farm specialises in four wines – a blended Rosé, a single vineyard Pinot Noir, a single vineyard Barbera and a blended red wine from various varieties and vineyard sites on the farm. All the grapes that go into our wines are grown on The Drift Farm. This means we do not buy in any grapes or wine as many other labels do. In each case our goal is to make individual, superb quality wines with exceptional character. Essentially, they represent the extreme growing conditions that characterises our mountain farm.
