Bass River Winery

Bass River is a pioneering winery and vineyard in South Gippsland, dedicated to crafting wines that celebrate the region’s unique biodiversity and terroir.

Since 1983, the Butera Family has meticulously nurtured this land, which is perfectly situated between the Bass River and the southern Strzelecki Ranges. The vineyard benefits from cool conditions due to its proximity to the maritime elements.

As vignerons, the Buteras focus on sustainable viticulture and an expression of place, producing small quantities of premium, handcrafted wines exclusively from their estate vineyard. Our team carefully monitors every stage of the wine’s development, knowing precisely when to intervene and when to let nature take its course. This cohesive approach ensures we create the most distinctive wines possible—the proof, of course, is in your glass.
