Bremerton Wines

Bremerton is a family-owned in winery based out of South Australia's Langhorne Creek. Established in 1988, the winery encompasses 120 hectares, crafting up to 18 unique cuvees, they have become known as one of the best value producers in the region.

Originally a Lucerne farm, the 1985 purchase of the 40-hectare "Bremerton Lodge" marked a shift to winemaking. The journey began in 1988 with the production of Cabernet Sauvignon, gradually expanding to include a diverse range of varietals. Despite setbacks, including a significant flood in 1992, the Willson family strategically transitioned the property into a renowned vineyard. By 1994, Bremerton embraced commercial winemaking, launching a cellar door in 1994 and achieving international acclaim for their Cabernet Sauvignon in 1997.

Guided by Winemaker Rebecca Willson and Marketing Manager Lucy Willson, the brand prioritizes high-quality and distinctive wines, earning Bremerton a solid position in the competitive market. Their dedication has secured a James Halliday 5-star winery rating for 17 consecutive years, placing them among the top 5% of Australian wineries. The Willson Sisters have successfully elevated Bremerton to prominence as one of South Australia's well-known wine brands from Langhorne Creek.

★★★★★
"Bremerton is a family-owned winery, run by sisters Rebecca Willson (chief winemaker) and Lucy Willson (marketing manager). Previously a lucerne farm, the family experimented with grape growing in the ’80s and ’90s; a flood in ’92 ruined the lucerne crop and led the family to switch to grape growing commercially. Today they have 120ha of premium vineyards (80% of which goes into their own labels), planted to cabernet sauvignon, shiraz, verdelho, chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, malbec, merlot, fiano, graciano and petit verdot."
