THE TAYLORS PHILOSOPHY... The Taylor family were first inspired by the excellent Bordeaux wines such as Mouton-Rothschild. These quality French wines had long held a fascination and producing wines of comparable quality in Australia prompted the family’s foray into the winemaking industry. An inspired combination of ‘old world’ estate philosophy and ‘new world’ winemaking innovation has resulted in the crafting of a range of wines that regularly receive international awards and accolades.
Wine lovers know they can trust Taylors to deliver superb quality table wines year after year- the family spare no expense or effort to ensure just that.
