Nestled in the mountains of northeastern Victoria, just outside the picturesque town of Beechworth, lays the Savaterre vineyard. The site was discovered in 1996 by Keppell Smith, owner and winemaker, after an expansive search through Australia’‘s quality wine regions.

The mild summer days, cool climate elevation combined with the rolling foothills of the Victorian Alps was the magic combination sought by Keppell.
