Fernfield Wines is a boutique winery tucked away in the rolling hills of Eden Valley, offering small-batch, handcrafted wines that reflect the elegance and purity of this cool-climate region. Owned and run by husband-and-wife team Scott and Bec Barr, Fernfield produces wines that are shaped by the land, with a deep focus on sustainability and traditional winemaking techniques.
