Buy Forest Hill Wine Online

Forest Hill is Western Australia’s oldest cool-climate vineyard. Forest Hill is a proud family-owned boutique winery creating exciting wines of the highest quality. Each is made to be a true reflection of the premium Western Australian grape-growing region of Mt Barker in the State’s Great Southern expressing unique regional and varietal characters combined with finesse, elegance and definition.  

There is something very special about the wines from Forest Hill. Part of this, of course, comes from the location. The vineyard is located in Mount Barker and the vines date back to original plantings made in 1965.

This makes Forest Hill the oldest cool climate winery in Western Australia. The Great Southern experiences diurnal temperatures (the significant difference between day and night time temperatures). Warm long day light hours coupled with the cool nights of the Great Southern harness ideal conditions for the production of cool climate wine styles.

At the time of establishment vineyard irrigation was not an industry consideration and all early plantings were ‘dry grown’ providing drought prevention and ensuring low yields. Forest Hill has retained this approach, believing it to be a major contributor to vine health and concentration of fruit flavour.
