Our story
From dairy land to a much-loved Shoalhaven vineyard
Cambewarra Estate was planted on 20 acres of old dairy land and officially opened by the Mayor of the Shoalhaven in October 1994. Today it's owned by Amanda and Brett, with local winemaker Michelle Crockett on board.
We grow four varietals (Chardonnay, Verdelho, Chambourcin and Cabernet Sauvignon), and the whole winemaking process, from the vines to the bottle, happens here on the Estate.
“A much loved, must see and most importantly, tasted, destination on the Shoalhaven.”

Three Estate favourites
Grown, crushed and made on the Estate
A white, a rosé and a red to introduce you to the Estate. Explore the full range in our shop.
White · 2025 · Estate
Rosé · Estate ChambourcinThe Sierra Rosé
A drier rosé with hints of strawberry and nectarine, and the rich scarlet colour only Chambourcin gives. Lovely with seafood and cheese.
Red · 2022 · EstateArthur's Reserve · Chambourcin
Deep colour with black cherry and plum. Great with tomato-based dishes, spicy food or, says Arthur, a pepperoni pizza.

Book the twilight nightA little patience. A lot of character.
From vine to glass.
Every bottle begins with a season in the vineyard. Follow the journey of an Estate-grown wine, from picking the grapes to that first cellar-door sip.
From the Estate’s own camera
Come along for harvest.
Watch the Estate’s 2025 Chambourcin harvest, shared on 3 February 2025. A real glimpse of the grape picking behind a vintage.

Pick the moment
Harvest begins when the fruit is ready. Ripeness, acidity and flavour help guide when grapes are picked.
It starts with the fruit. - 02
Crush & press
Grapes are prepared for winemaking. Pressing separates juice from skins; the order and timing depend on the wine style.
A new chapter for each bunch. - 03
Let fermentation work
Yeast turns grape sugars into alcohol. For red wines, contact with the skins helps develop colour, texture and flavour.
The quiet transformation. - 04
Give it time
Resting and maturation help shape the finished wine. The vessel and time involved vary with the style—there’s no single recipe for every bottle.
Patience has a part to play. - 05
Bottle, pour & enjoy
The finished wine is bottled, ready for its next chapter. Meet the Estate-grown varieties at the cellar door and find your favourite.
Best explored one sip at a time.
Cambewarra Estate grows Chardonnay, Verdelho, Chambourcin and Cabernet Sauvignon, with its Estate winemaking taking place on site. This is a general guide; methods vary by wine.
