• Banks Road Vineyard is a family-run, small production winery based in the beautiful Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria. William and Avanelle Derham established the vineyard in 2002, planting first 5 acres of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay then expanding to Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz.

  • Will’s winemaking philosophy of minimalist intervention from the low yielding vineyard encourages high natural acidity and sugar levels, resulting in well-structured, elegant wines made with passion. All Banks Road wines are made on site, so from grape to bottle to tasting counter the estate wines travel only 400 metres!

  • Enjoy all the current release Banks Road vintages in the relaxed setting of the Banks Road Cellar Door & Cafe. Banks Road wines are also available in local restaurants and selected restaurants throughout Melbourne and the rest of Australia.
