It is named in belated honour of Father James Dunphy, who lost his life aged 30 years, June 17th 1845, when swept off his horse attempting to cross the flooded Cudgegong River, at the present location of our Martins Hill Vineyard.
Fr. Dunphy was at the end of a 4 day ride from the settlement of Harley, Western edge of the Blue Mountains, to baptise tow children.
To His Memory.
Martins Hill Organic Wines is a NASAA certified organic vineyard, Organic Vigneron and owner Michael Sweeney planted the first vines in 1985, more vines were added to the vineyard in 2000. Over the past 3 years we have planted Riesling additional Pinot Noir and a Shiraz block has been planted on the slopes of the southwestern side of Martins Hill. These vines have all come from our library rows.
Michael is a passionate winemaker who lives the organic lifestyle, and produces no added preservative and vegan friendly wines. 30 years of organic practices and not using chemicals, pesticides and synthetic fertilizers has resulted in the production of a beautiful clean fruit.
