Welcome to Nandroya Wines

Nandroya is an indiginous name for a family living in harmony. The growing of the grapes and the making of wine is based on the principle of harmony with the environment. We acknowledge the Melukerdee, the First Nation band who lived in this area.

Location
Nandroya lies above the river which links Mount Wellington  and NorthWest Bay on rich well drained volcanic soils.The vineyard and Cellar Door  are in Margate (262 Sandfly Rd) which is only a short  20 minute drive from Hobart.

Micro-climate
The vineyard, of 1.5 Ha, is slightly elevated  and faces North-East to capture maximum sun in the growing season. Wine, after all is bottled sunshine! Warm days and cool nights identify Nandroya  truly as a "cool-climate' vineyard. With an average of less than 1000 degree days, vintage  can be as late as May when there is already snow on Mt Wellington.

Varieties
Nandroya is limited toPinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc.When planted in 1990, Sauvignon Blanc was not as popular as it is today but now ranks as our signature wine.

Philosophy
Nandroya is founded on relationships. "A family living in harmony" These relationships extend to 'Terroir" or the interdependance of the soil,aspect,and the organic principles used to manage the vineyard. Nandroya has recently received accreditation  with the Global  Network of Green Tourism.
