 With a love of Coonawarra wines, David Muir and Robert Hance commenced vineyard operations in Coonawarra in 1988 with the purchase and development of 16 hectares in the Victoria and Albert Lane, Coonawarra. This property was planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Chardonnay.

With the knowledge that you need excellent grapes to make excellent wine, a policy was developed to expand our vineyard operations to enable Punters Corner to select grapes from various vineyards in Coonawarra.

In 1991 the sixty-four hectare Vincorp vineyard was established in northern Coonawarra and in 1992 operations were further expanded with the purchase of the twelve-hectare Punters Corner Cellar Door vineyard. In 1998 a fourth vineyard was planted in central Coonawarra.

This vineyard, Saratango Park, is sixty hectares in area and is already providing high quality fruit to the Punters Corner range of wines.
