Everything we do comes from our home in Coldstream. Ideas are born here, the grapes are grown here, and our wines are crafted and shared here. As a family-owned vineyard and winery, we aim to create wines that reflect the heritage of our site, and the independent, creative energy of the Yarra Valley. Winemaker Tim Shand guides the path of fruit from more than 150 acres of estate-grown vineyards. We have planted several varieties over the past 27 years to best suit this site, including pinot gris, chardonnay, pinot noir, gamay, shiraz, merlot, cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon. These varieties shine in different ways across three distinctive expressions – Airlie Bank, Punt Road and our limited release ‘Block Series’ wines – with our full Punt Road range always available for tastings.

Nestled within the Napoleone Family Orchards, the Napoleone Orchard Bar is the newest addition to the wide range of artisanal venues in Victoria’s Yarra Valley. Combining style and sustainability the shipping container bar has been crafted by local maker and designer, Simon Wightwick. The menu will pay homage to the humble apple – house-made apple and pear ciders, imports from France and a selection of Australian guest ciders. Calvados and Applejacks feature as well as cocktails designed by Rob Hall, who will lead the bar through it’s opening season and beyond, both as creative head and manager of hospitality. Hall’s resume includes The Botanist, Sloane Square (London) and The Royal Shakespeare Company, Stratford upon Avon – he is excited for the opportunity to work with hyper local, field to shaker produce and has designed the menu to highlight the integrity of the raw materials. The Orchard Bar will be a garden party celebrating all things cider, one hour from the Melbourne CBD.
