About Winery and Wines

Kingsley Grove Estate was founded by the Berry family in 1998 and is operated by the family. Michael and Patricia developed the concept of the vineyard and the site location for the winery whilst undertaking Viticulture studies at Melbourne University and until recently ran the whole production themselves. The vines are now looked after by Peter Stewart, giving Mike and Pat a well deserved rest. Their son, Simon has been making our boutique wine now for 7 years and loving it. The newest addition to the team is Jo, his wife who is now running the office. Simon and Jo’s children, Grace and Polly are learning the ways of the farm by living it and having a fabulous time. Kingsley Grove vineyard lies within the South Burnett Region of Queensland near to the regional town of Kingaroy, which is about 21/2 hours drive from Brisbane. Kingaroy is traditionally recognised for growing Peanuts and Navy Beans, and has been growing wine grapes in the area since the early 1900’s. More recently Kingaroy has gained recognition as one of the fastest growing wine regions in Queensland. Our vineyard is 430 metres above sea level and was established in 1998 when the first vines of the current ten varieties were planted on the site. It is currently 24 acres (10 hectares) in size and can be easily seen from the Bunya Highway, approximately 10km beyond Kingaroy, on the way to the Bunya Mountains National Park.
