Mike & Christo Edwards, Vigneron, Margaret River

Mike & Christo Edwards Vigneron Margaret River Story by Edwards Wines

In 1990, Mike & Christo's father Brian, set out on an epic adventure in a tiny Tiger Moth named Matilda, flying solo from England to Australia and lived his dream.

Brian, swayed by his passion for Shiraz and the potential he saw in the Margaret River region, then began to follow another dream. Discovering a property where he could firstly land Matilda and secondly plant grapes was a turning point for the whole family. What started as a simple ‘tree change’ has grown into a thriving family business.

Mike creates the wines while Christo tends the vines - that is when they're not tearing up the surf during regular ‘board meetings’. This synergy between viticulture and winemaking is strengthened by the brother’s close relationship, their love for the region and what they do. Their picturesque 25-hectare vineyard is now home to some of the region’s most elegant and vibrant award-winning wines.

Edwards Wines is located five minutes drive NW of Margaret River, where Matilda sits proudly near Cellar Door as a gentle reminder to pursue your passions.
