OUR HISTORY

If you love a winery with history then John Gehrig Wines is for you!

The John Gehrig Wines family friendly cellar door experience is a must for on your list of King Valley wineries to visit. Where you can taste the history of winemaking since 1860 in the heart of the Milawa Gourmet Region.

Ross Gehrig, a fifth generation winemaker has an obsession with producing the best grapes to produce wines of distinction that pay homage to this iconic King Valley winery in North Eastern Victoria. Ross’ father John established the vineyard and winery on the banks of the King River, in the townships of Oxley in 1976.  Ross has taken on the challenge of guiding the next winemaking generation of Gehrigs to craft fine wines.

In 2011, the allure of returning back into John’s original birthplace – Rutherglen- was too strong, thus Ross with wife Meghan, have expanded to a new vineyard and cellar door site in Gooramadda (east Rutherglen).
