| ABOUT US |
Tamburlaine is Australia’s largest producer of organic wines, although
not a large winery in world terms. The winery was
established in 1966 in the renowned Pokolbin district of the Hunter
Valley. In 1985, a small group of friends and relatives, led by Managing Director and Chief Winemaker, Mark Davidson,purchased the
Pokolbin, Hunter Valley winery and vineyard from its founder, Dr
Lance Allen.
Ten years later, in 1995, Tamburlaine expanded its
production and quality base through the acquisition of prime vineyard
land in the emerging cool climate Orange wine region in the Central
Tablelands of New South Wales. Up to 70% of the annual production
now comes from Orange. In 2008, Tamburlaine also started sourcing fruit
from the Mount Frome Vineyards located in Mudgee, NSW.

Tamburlaine has always held a unique customer service position amongst
Australian wineries, and as a result has a substantial and loyal group of wineclub members (see MEMBERS). Although the Members’ Reserve range of
wines remain exclusively sold direct from the vineyard, with a current output of
100,000 cases per year, Tamburlaine now also supplies other wines from its
portfolio to the rapidly growing Australian Trade and Export markets (see
AUSTRALIAN DISTRIBUTORS)
Tamburlaine is rated by Australia’s leading wine authority, James Halliday, as a 5 star winery in the 2009 edition of the Australian Wine
Companion, 9 of our wines rated 90 points or above, and the winery
was nominated as one of the ‘Ten dark horse’ wineries. In the 2010 edition we gained the added distinction of having our 5 stars turn ‘red’ due to our consistent 5 star rating! (See
REVIEW / AWARDS). |
