West Cape Howe Wines

West Cape Howe Winery is situated in Mount Barker, in the midst of the oldest vineyard planting in the Great Southern. Our driving philosophy is to make delicious wines of harmony, balance, structure and flavour - wines that people love to drink.

We spent a fair bit of time in the Denmark / Mount Barker region and I’m pretty sure the warmest greeting we got was from Gill and Gavin at West Cape Howe. The fire was going and the coffee they roast was awesome (you can buy beans as well). But the wines are terrific and at a really good price point. We ended up with a few cartons. It’s a touch out of the way, but we’ll worth the trip.

Windrush Wines

Reviewed By dodi66 - Reno, United States

Windrush is a small winery just outside of Mt Barker in WA. We were greeted warmly by John, served delicious wines and a beautiful lunch. The location is beautiful, the food and wines really good. Loved the pear tart especially!! John took the time to explain his wine making process and plans for his land. And we had the entertainment of watching many guinea fowls cavort through the vines and garden while sipping. If in the area a don’t miss a stop here!

Plantagenet Wines

Reviewed By greggie85 - Rivervale, Australia

We decided to drop into Plantagenet Wines on the way back to Perth for a tasting before heading to the Franklin River Valley to try some other wineries. While tasting we had the fortune to meet the founder, Tony Smith, who still spends a lot of time at the winery despite having handed over his winemaking role to the next generation. He was a most interesting and informative person and our planned short stay extended into lunch time, so we decided to stay for lunch. After tasting numerous classy wines, it was hard to decide what wine to buy for lunch. We chose the Three Lions Shiraz (a lovely fruit driven lighter style) and a dried tomato, olives etc pizza. We sat outside in the lovely courtyard and enjoyed the absolute serenity. After such a great experience we decided to give the other wineries a miss and drive straight home. We can highly recommend this winery and further recommend that you stay for lunch and make a half day of it.

Galafrey Wines

We are a family-owned business and all wines are dry grown, nurtured and bottled on the estate. That is to strive for excellence in producing small parcels of distinctive and consistently exceptional wines through commitment to producing fruit of the highest quality which we believe is the key to great winemaking

Drove past on our way to another vineyard and popped in as it said online 'open every day'. I'm not entirely sure they were open (it was Tuesday at 4pm) but you wouldn't have known from the welcome and service received. Nigel was friendly, patient with me and my simple (read: stupid!) wine questions and very generous with the tastings. We discovered a new white that we loved and my husband even bought a red which he barely drinks. Thank you to Nigel for being the highlight of Mount Baker wine tour.
