Wines that bear the Andrew Garrett brand reflect a strong personal commitment to quality. Andrew Garrett reconciles the firmness of Cabernet with the softness of Merlot, whilst retaining the natural expressions of both varietals. Grapes are selected from vineyards producing fruit with generous flavours and consistently high quality. The plum and cherry of the Merlot greets the fullness of the Cabernet, forming a tender, forward drinking red wine. Maturation in French and American oak completes and balances the noble blend.
Today's Andrew Garrett fulfills the founder's faith in the future of Australian wine. Parcels of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are sourced from premium vineyards, selected by the winemaking team on the basis of consistency and good varietal expression. Grapes are crushed, inoculated to select strains of yeast, then left to jam on skins for a few days over the course of fermentation. The juices are then pressed and settled, followed by racking and maturation in a combination of new and prior use French and American oaks for twelve months. The separate components are then assessed for inclusion, assembled and stabilised before bottling. Approx 13.5%

Andrew Garrett Wines, established by winemaking entrepreneur Andrew Garrett, is now operated by the greater Cockatoo Ridge group of wineries. Andrew Garrett began his career as a cellar hand in the mid 1970s. As a 26-year-old he launched his own wine label in 1984, and within six years his products and marketing flair had built a business with $23 million of assets, and turning over $12 million a year.

His determination was displayed after a fire in 1988 destroyed his Magill Cellars, and a hailstorm caused nearly $2 million damage to his Yarra Valley vineyards. Restructuring to rebuild the winery's operations, he eventually lost control of his label, and today Andrew Garrett wines are owned and operated by the greater Fosters group.

Today, fruit for the entire Andrew Garrett range, is sourced from selected vineyards, earmarked for their capacity to grow good fruit, crushed and processed back at the wineworks, and fashioned into some of the country's most popular wines. The umbrella company, International Vintners Australia, is committed to extensive, long-term viticulture development and winemaking operations within Australia. The company continues to approach ventures with professionalism, planning and confidence.
