Situated on the Pacific Highway just south of Port Macquarie on the New South Wales mid-north coast, Cassegrain Wines is a wonderful place to visit for a taste of tradition.

The Cassegrain winemaking heritage began in France in 1643. A heritage of French winemaking skills combined with Australian technology is practised today by John Cassegrain, using that “savoir faire” (the know how), to produce a wide range of Premium, Reserve and Limited Release wines that are full flavoured, yet soft and elegant.

When the original vineyard was planted at Cassegrain in 1980 it pioneered the revival of Winemaking in the Hastings River Region where the temperate maritime climate is ideally suited to the production of soft and elegant table wines.

This interest in New and Emerging Wine Regions continues today as Cassegrain strives to continually evolve its wines and recognise the importance that terroir plays in determining grape characteristics. Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the cool climate of Tumbarumba; Chardonnay from the cool, high altitude areas of the New England region as well as the maritime region of Hastings River; and Shiraz from lower altitude sites in New England and Cowra.

Cassegrain’s Cellar Door is open seven days a week, from 9am to 5pm, with a complete range of wines for tasting, along with the new Wine Attic which offers a stunning range of both Australian and International wines.

The Cassegrain Winery is the ideal setting for all occasions, from a romantic wedding to a casual picnic, featuring extensive grounds, a formal garden with picnic areas and boasting over 2000 stunning rose bushes lining the entrance to the winery. The sweeping lawns of the Oval, set within the vineyards, forms a natural amphitheatre where a number of concerts are held each year.

Cassegrain’s Wine Club gives its members the opportunity to receive the new vintages before their release, as well as substantial discounts together with numerous other benefits and privileges.
