Symphonia Wines is located in the King Valley wine region of Victoria.
The vineyard is at Myrrhee, in a picturesque tributary valley of the main King River system. Originally planted in the 1990's by visionary winemaker Peter Read who realised that the climate and soils were ideal for growing then un-heralded varieties from cool regions of the world.
He planted Pinot Grigio (Northern Italy), Saperavi (Georgia), Tannat and Petit Manseng (Pyrenees region of France), Temperanillo (Northern Spain), and Albarino (now known as Savagnin from North Western Spain) along with small areas of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.In 2005, Peter Read sold the vineyard to the present owners, Peter and Suzanne Evans who continue championing these unusual varieties.
