Harris Organic Wines

First planted in 1999, the vines at Harris Organic Wines 5 acre vineyard are created by hand – from the first budburst of Spring to the final pruning in grey winter, the organic vineyard (where beautiful wine begins) is carefully tended by Duncan Harris – owner and winemaker.

Because the Harris Organic vineyard is managed using organic principles of viticulture, no pesticides or herbicidal chemicals are used on or around the vines, nor are the vines artificially fertilised. The vines are weeded uses a strip digger in spring to turn over the nitrogen-rich winter growth to become “green manure” returning nutrients to the soil and encouraging earth worm and microbial activity.

Everything is done by hand at Harris Organic Wines, from pruning to most importantly, the picking of the fruit later in summer, this means there are no machine battered vines or wines at Harris Organic wines you could say that we are happy producers of “free range” wines.

The vines are planted on rich duplex soils. They are not irrigated and therefore have to fend for themselves. Their roots are deep into the clay subsoil layers to extract the little water available during the summer months.
