Punch, VIC  10 Scott St, St Andrews
James has been making wine from his family’s vineyards for more than 25 years, firstly under the tutelage of his father – recognised Pinot Pioneer and Diamond Valley Vineyards founder, Dr David Lance – and since 2005, making his own mark with Punch. Our vineyard is meticulously and sensitively cared for – using appropriate organic and holistic systems based on both science and years’ experience.​ Vines are hand dressed, pruned and harvested. In the winery we use minimal interventions, harnessing natural yeasts, gravity settlings, slow elevage in barrel, and no fining or filtration. After estate bottling, we allow all of our wines significant time in bottle, to develop closer to their peak before release. We’d love for you to try our wines, available online, from one of our stockists, or in our new cellar door – Punch Wine Room – right in the heart of St Andrews.
