Faber Vineyards, WA  233 Haddrill Road, Baskerville WA 6056
Faber Vineyard is our family vineyard and winery in Western Australia’s Swan Valley.  Faber was established by John Griffiths & Jane Micallef in 1997 to grow regionally distinctive grapes and craft wines that are rich and flavoursome.  Faber is Latin for a smith, a craftsman, an artisan; skilled, ingenious. We believe wine should be inspired – crafted with a sense of creating something distinctive and characterful.  Winemaking is a simple craft – let the fruit dictate the style of the wine, not the winemaker.  True winemaking is not an act of manipulation but of allowing the conversion of grapes to wine in such a way as to express the flavours and nature of those grapes.  It’s about wines that sing of their origins – variety, soil, climate.  Wine is a natural product, wrought by craftsmen.

Olive Farm Wines, WA  920 Great Northan Hwy, Millendon, WA, 6056
The heritage of WA’s oldest winery, four-generations of family ownership and the ‘dream’ cellar door including a decadent cheese emporium, makes for one un-missable Swan Valley experience. The Olive Farm property dates back to 1829 and was established by an English botanist named Thomas Waters who brought grapevine cuttings and olive trees with him when he settled in Perth. He planted the olive trees first, hence the name, but wine was soon produced, with the first vintage in 1834. (Much of which became currency for bartering with the local shopkeepers!) The winery become one of the first in WA to produce Traditional Method Sparkling wines back in the 1960s. These remain a core of range which is now named ‘Olivine’. Still table wines were introduced in the 1970s and achieved great success in the local wine shows. The current range is diverse, with over 35 sweet to dry white, red, sparkling and fortified wines. There are all the Swan Valley classics, along with some other surprise varieties like Tempranillo, Traminer, Durie and Cabernet Franc.
