Wild Duck Creek Estate is a boutique multi-generation winery built on passion, quality and most of all, dedication. This dedication is seen in every vine and every bottle produced by the family-owned estate. The effort that is tasted every time you have a sip of Wild Duck Creek Estate wine. Since producing its first commercial vintage in 1991 the estate has focused on making wines that offer world-class quality, collectability and value.

The devotion to creating outstanding wines first started when founder, David Anderson planted his first vines at the Alan’s Cabernets block in Heathcote’s south in 1974. Anderson’s dream was to make a wine that tasted delicious and playful, full of flavour and life, which he greatly succeeds at. Over the last fifty years, David Anderson and his son, Liam Anderson have planted vineyards across the region, with wine production varying across each individual vineyard, owning thirteen vineyards in total. Each wine is a snapshot of a moment in time, carefully curated to bring that moment to life through the five senses. 

The father-son duo at Wild Duck Creek Estate know the importance of sustainability, and ensure environmental impact is reduced in the production of their wines. The twenty-hectares that make up the estate and vineyards are all managed to ensure a low environmental cost. Some implementations of their environmental policy include the following: 100 per cent renewable energy used in the winery and vineyards, winery waste is composted and re-used in the vineyards, and 10,000 trees planted on owned land that was previously logged for farming.

Each wine produced is unique, with enhanced individual flavours and aromas, that enable the crafting of delicious regional blends, and more recently, single vineyard expressions. Wild Duck Creek Estate isn’t interested in awards and although the estate has received critical acclaim over the years, the father-son team would rather focus on producing wines that their members can enjoy year in and year out.
