Our Review
The name celebrates the '64 vintage orange-coloured Fiat tractor acquired when Murray Gomm and Pamela Lincoln began the establishment of the vineyard. Murray was born in the region, but moved to Perth to work in physical education and health promotion. There, he met nutritionist Pamela, who completed the wine science degree at CSU in '00, before being awarded a Churchill Fellowship to study organic grape and wine production in the US and Europe. The vineyard was certified organic in '05, and the focus is very much on regenerative farming. -HALLIDAY TEAM
