About The Winery

In December 2005  the Mathews family acquired the long-established Hopelands Vineyard located in the pristine Margaret River wine region.

During 2006 the vineyard was rejuvenated, requiring many hours of physical labour.

The vines were cut right back and retrellised, resulting in a consequent reduction in yield and significant rise in wine quality.

The After Hours harvest is around 30 tonnes of fruit each year, from which  approximately 2500 cases of premium wine are produced.

The vineyard consists of Cabernet Sauvignon (2.6 ha), Shiraz (1.6 ha), Merlot, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay (1.1 ha each).
