The Fraser Gallop Estate Winery

The building of the Fraser Gallop Estate winery was completed in time for vintage 2008. With extensive planning and good equipment research and selection we have ended up with what we believe is one of the best equipped small winery facilities in WA. For winemakers, Clive and Kate, it is a joy to work in and very efficient!

Winemaking

The winemaking philosophy at Fraser Gallop Estate is essentially about wine quality.

Our main aim is to preserve the fruit flavours in the grape as much as possible so that the wine is a true reflection of our vineyard - site, soils, microclimate - what the French refer to as 'terroir'. To maintain the intensity of the fruit, the grapes are treated with 'kid gloves', techniques such as hand picking, gravity feeding the press, whole bunch pressing whites and minimal crushing for reds, are employed.

When the grapes are handed over to the winery, they are of a truly high standard. It is paramount that we ensure the fruit's qualities are showcased in the glass.
