Established in 1921, Buller Wines blends a century of tradition with contemporary winemaking practices to create exceptional wines. The local family-owned winery has been rejuvenated under the stewardship of the Gerald Judd, David Whyte, Michael Murtagh and Paul Squires, who have grown it into a must-visit attraction in the Rutherglen region.

Buller Wines now offer ‘Build Your own’ cheese platters in the cellar door, alongside the new Prosecco Bar which is the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine and a cheese platter!With more than thirty wines available to taste, there is something for everyone at Buller Wines, from the King Valley Prosecco to fifty-year-old Calliope Rare Rutherglen Muscat as well as sensational red and white table wines. The atmosphere is always friendly, and the staff welcome everyone from novice wine tasters to experts. Be sure not to leave without tasting the range of Calliope Rare Muscat, tokay and frontignac.

It takes significant skill, passion and energy to take on the role of chief winemaker at Buller Wines. Since 2012, the winery has been lucky to find these traits in David Whyte, who was tasked with balancing ninety-eight ears of tradition with his own style and knowledge to help the business grow and develop.

David has always had a strong interest in food and wine, and this passion took him to Charles Sturt University in Wagga Wagga, where he completed his winemaking degree. In 2001 he was named Best First Year Winemaking Student, and this early identification of talent lead him to join Cofield Wines in 2002 as assistant winemaker. David has also broadened his horizons in Griffith at De Bortoli’s and in Swan Hill at Andrew Peace Wines, but he has returned to his roots in the Rutherglen region as of 2012.

All four local families have seen the rejuvenation and planting of the Calliope vineyard, winery upgrades and releases of new wines and ranges and they are all still apart of the team on site. Gerald, David, Michael and Paul have an intrinsic understanding of Rutherglen wines and they bring their wealth of experience into every bottle Buller Wines produces.
