Surrounded by some ninety acres of vineyard nestled in the rolling hills of the Mudgee district of New South Wales, lies the Simon Gilbert Winery.

During the 1990's Simon Gilbert, a fifth generation winemaker, came to the Mudgee district to make wines that would reflect the subtlety and depth of character associated with grapes grown under cooler conditions. Having demonstrated the potential of the region for producing wines of the highest quality and in line with his vision he set about building a new winery in 1999. Incorporating state-of-the-art winemaking technologies, the winery was completed in 2000.

Today, under the guidance of a professional management team and the wine-making leadership of Andrew Ewart, a graduate of the University of California Davis and one of Australia's leading winemakers, the Simon Gilbert winery produces premium and super-premium wines. Drawing on a rich academic and practical wine-making background spanning some thirty years and three continents, Andrew guides his team to focus on sourcing fruit from the wineries own private vineyards and those of a select few viticulturalists from the Mudgee and Orange districts, to produce wines that capture the essence of the cool climate growing conditions and ideal soil structures of these unique New South Wales regions.
