ALBERT RIVER WINES

  There stands two historical homesteads on this site of which the first, Tamborine House, was purchased by the past owners, David and Janette Bladin. The second is now the winery which in its original state was a single-story bungalow in the traditional style now known as the 'Queenslander'. In 1880, the home was bought by Sir Thomas McIlwraith, then serving his term as Premier of Queensland.He named the house 'Auchenflower' after the much loved Ayshire, Scotland farm of his great uncle. The word stems from the Gaelic 'Achaidhean Fluir', meaning 'fertile fields' or 'fields of flowers'. In 1998 it was relocated and became the new home of Albert River Wines. This is but a snippet of history from this amazing location, more is revealed on tour.

  CANUNGRA VALLEY VINEYARD AND WINERY

Shane O'Reilly from the famous O'Reilly family of the Lamington National Park first had the concept of growing grapes in the Canungra Valley. He relocated the present Cellar Door homestead of the winery from Warwick, again this is only a glimpse of the history other than to say that the vineyard has seven acres under vine, consisting of 4500 Chambourcin and Semillon vines. Local Canungra residents planted these vines in November 1998. The first of their estate wines became available in August 2000. There are many more treasures to be unfolded at Canungra Valley Vineyard including their family of resident Platypus that feed and play in the still waters of Canungra Creek behind the homestead just to name one !

Easy drinking Shiraz and boutique Chambourcin wines are available with picturesque views of the Scenic Rim mountains.

Car parking and a Barrel Room are easily accessable. In 2000 the idea arose of establishing a vineyard in the Boonah area following a six weeks long tour of vineyards in the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Clare, Limestone Coast, Coonawarra, Yarra Valley, Canberra - Yass, Hunter Valley, Hastings River, New England plateau, Granite Belt and the Scenic Rim of Southeast Queensland. Over 70 vineyards were visited and keen observations made of viticulture, winemaking and sales activities.

An analysis of the necessary parameters for successful winegrowing was made with the assistance of the University of New England and following successful soil tests the initial vines were planted at Bellbrook in August 2003. These vines were grafted Chambourcin cuttings procured from the Mildura region. Grafted Shiraz cuttings were planted in 2004 and additional Chambourcin vines were planted in 2005.
