He's modest, down-to-earth but very passionate about the Frankland River region in Western Australia. Meet Kim Horton, Ferngrove's Chief Winemaker, the man responsible for putting the magic into the bottle.
Kim leads the talented winemaking and viticultural team at Ferngrove's winery in Frankland River (part of the Great Southern wine region).
Located 90 kilometres from the majestic Great Southern coastline, between the cooling influence of the converging Southern and Indian oceans, Frankland River is one of Western Australia's most isolated and pristine wine regions.
With a local population of around 400 people, Kim is sometimes asked why he has been in Frankland River so long? Kim says the answer is simple "Frankland River is amazing and you need the best grapes to make the greatest wines in the world, and I believe they're grown in Frankland River."
