Welcome to Sutton Grange Winery
Sutton Grange Winery is located on the southern edge of the Bendigo region, and for many years was known for its thoroughbred racing facility but since planting of the vineyards in 1998 it is now recognised for the wines it produces. The Sutton Grange vineyard is cultivated with organic and biodynamic methods, and the wines are traditionally handcrafted by winemaker Gilles Lapalus. The wines combine Gilles distinctive style and interpretation with our organically grown estate fruit. The release of Sutton Grange Winery wines in 2003 were originally the title of Fairbank. With the maturity of the vines a premium label named Sutton Grange Estate has been released which exemplify our determination to produce great wines.
Both labels (Fairbank and Sutton Grange Estate) are available at leading restaurants and bottle preferred wine sales outlets. Please refer to your nearest restaurant or retail outlet by browsing the 'Our Wines, Stockists' section for a comprehensive listing of outlets or alternatively we have a purchasing section on this website were you can buy your favourite wines.
Since the release of our wines in 2003, our wines have been wonderfully received by wine critics and wine lovers alike.
"Today the Fairbank wines represent some of the most exceptional value for money wine in Australian wine" Jeremy Oliver, The Australian Wine Annual 2010
"This is a masterful statement of bright, complex vineyard-driven character and insightful winemaking" Nick Stock, The Penguin Good Australian Wine Guide 2009
"At Sutton Grange, Lapalus produces some of Australia’s best, most complex and textually satisfying wines: pale but powerful rosé, minerally viognier and svelte, spicy syrah with a gorgeous Gallic twang." Max Allen, Gourmet Traveller July 2010
"Makes magnificent Shiraz with both texture and minerality from Bendigo." Andrew Jefford, Financial Times 2010
“I thought it absolutely gorgeous, a red to serve at any time of day” Paddy Kendler, The Herald Sun 2009
