The Pannells are dedicated to two things - a wine's personality and the Burgundian approach to wine, with the family-owned Picardy wines described as, 'Australian wine with a French accent'.
When you visit the Picardy vineyard and winery in Pemberton, WA, don't be surprised to see guinea fowls roaming free - after all, this is part of the Pannell family's philosophy of giving back to the land.
Three generations of the Pannell family currently live at the Pemberton property, with the Picardy vineyard owned and run by Bill, Sandra, Dan and Jodie Pannell.
The Pannells have a combined experience of 60 years between father and son and are also dedicated to the Burgundian approach to growing and making wine.
The Pannells are also passionate about preserving the pristine and tranquil environment of the Pemberton region and produce wines that are 100% estate grown, unirrigated, cane pruned and hand harvested.
With this philosophy in mind, there are sure to be future generations immersed in the boutique Picardy business.
