About Smallwater Estate
Established: 1993 | 9ha under vine | 2500 dozen produced p.a.
Winemaker: Bruce Dukes and Remi Guise
Smallwater Estate was planted in 1993 by John Small and his late wife Robyn with the intention of developing a marron farm and a vineyard to grow contract grapes. For the next ten years or so, most of the grapes were supplied to Cape Mentelle and it wasn’t until 2005 when John decided to make his own wine under the Smallwater Estate label.
