51 Star Lane, Wooragee, Vic 3747

Surrounded by the vanguard of Australian winemaking, including Rick Kinzbrunner of Giaconda, internationally acclaimed for his Chardonnay, and Mark Walpole of Fighting Gully Road, Halliday's 2024 Viticulturist of the Year, Star Lane Winery Beechworth holds rare footing within one of Victoria's most bespoke wine regions. Positioned between the historic magnetism of Beechworth and the economic pull of Albury/Wodonga, this 44.7-acre approx estate combines established viticultural pedigree with the setting, infrastructure and scale to lead the region's next chapter. With architectural presence, a respected label and sweeping vineyard views, Star Lane winery not only sits in distinguished company, but is uniquely placed to pioneer a new era in the region's hospitality industry.

Planted almost three decades ago by its sole owner, the vineyard's 10 acres (approx) of Shiraz, Merlot and Chardonnay vines are consistently in demand, with each vintage sold through before the next harvest begins. The winery's favourable reputation has been built over time, supported by quality, consistency, and a deep understanding of the land. Elevating the offering is an architect-designed winery and cellar door, set across two levels with a climate-controlled barrel room below, a commercial kitchen, and a wide entertaining deck above that takes in sweeping views of the vines. The scale and design of the building allow for both working production and visitor engagement, with ample space for private tastings, curated events or future brand expansion. As regional wine tourism continues to grow, properties with this infrastructure level, reputation and scenic draw are becoming increasingly rare. Whether developed into a five-star accommodation and event venue similar to renowned Jackalope and Mitchelton Wines or continued as a working vineyard utilising the current homestead and scope for contract winemaking, Star Lane winery is well- positioned to evolve. With its proven track record and compelling setting, the future is ready to be shaped.
