Baileys of Glenrowan
Baileys of Glenrowan
Established in 1870, Baileys of Glenrowan is a certified organic vineyard that has an enviable reputation for producing rich, luscious wines and world-class fortifieds. The boutique vineyard is steeped in history and heritage, with over 150 years of winemaking experience and the famed 1920’s Block being one of the oldest vineyards in North-East Victoria. The notable 1904 Block Shiraz from the vineyard is completely dry grown, resulting in fruit of rare flavour and intensity.
The spectacular Warby Ranges provides a unique grape-growing climate with cool air flowing down from the ranges, tempered by warmer airflow from the nearby Winton Wetlands. In the hot summer months, the wetlands act like a giant air-conditioner, cooling the land and vineyards at night. The Glenrowan region is renowned for its luscious, fortified wines and rich red wine styles, a product of the area’s deep, red granite soils.
Baileys of Glenrowan is proud to showcase the heritage of the award-winning winery, and how traditional techniques evolve to reflect the modern winemaking expertise of the wine making team. Baileys of Glenrowan will continue to cherish the history and integrity of the winery for generations to come.
Baileys of Glenrowan is the perfect spot for intimate functions – a magical place with incredible scenery, situated between the granite rich Warby Ranges and picturesque Winton Wetlands. Applying their passion for organic farming and food, Baileys of Glenrowan opened the Bundarra Organic Kitchen, expanding the original vegetable patch and chicken coop to now produce their own seasonal produce and free-range eggs to use in the kitchen. Most of the kitchen staples and supplies for the restaurant have been converted to certified organic, including meat, dry goods and dairy. The kitchen surrounds itself around a much-loved brick woodfire pizza oven and the menu offers a range of seasonal meals including organic wood-fired pizzas and gorgeous platters, cheeseboards and house-made organic cakes and desserts.
Visitors are encouraged to stroll the historic grounds and view the well-preserved links to the past, including the original 1870 winery, Clydesdale stables and blacksmith’s forge. The expansive native gardens are yet another feature, providing a stunning visual backdrop, everchanging with the seasons.
Tasting Notes

⇐ 2021 Baileys of Glenrowan 1920s Block Organic Shiraz
Dark but vibrant colour with a lifted aromatic perfume. On the palate there is a myriad of flavours from aniseed, licorice spice and blackberry. The wine possesses power and depth of flavour all wrapped in mouth coating fine mature tannins.

⇐ 2012 Baileys of Glenrowan Organic Durif
Awash with ripe berry fruit up front. Typically, robust durif tannins emerge through the mid palate, adding grainy texture. Long and flavoursome finish with spicy, complex oak-derived characters.

⇐ NV Founder Series Classic Muscat
Caramel red in the glass, it features aromas of orange blossom, raisins, dried citrus peel and rose petals. Developing on the palate into a luscious wine full of fruit flavours and a careful balance of sweetness, acid, oak and alcohol.

⇐ NV Winemakers Selection Rare Old Topaque
The extreme age is obvious from the colour with its olive rim; the bouquet is voluminous and intensely complex. The palate incredibly luscious and complex, with multi-spice, mandarin zest, tea leaf and butterscotch flavours. The palate is like velvet, the rancio and spirit there but not excessive.
