Xabregas - Australske Vinhuse

Xabregas Wines are vintnered using only premium fruit from the Xabregas vineyards of Mount Barker, located within Western Australia's premier wine region, the Great Southern. Xabregas takes the finest cool climate fruit and creates premium wines of exceptional quality, elegance and style. We have 142 hectares of vines over 3 premium vineyards.

Rated a 5 star winery in James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2007, Xabregas Wines has won many international and national awards, including Gold, Best of Class for our 2005 Show Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon at the Int Wine & Spirit Show, London 2008, Gold, Best of Class for our 2004 Cabernet Merlot at the same Show in 2007, Gold at the New Zealand Int Wine Show 2008 for the Show Res Cab Sauv 2005 and our Cabernet Merlot 2005 and Silver at the San Francisco Int Wine Comp 2008 for our Show Reserve Chardonnay 2006.

Our White Label Range delivers premium quality wine at an approachable price of rec retail Au$16, and our reserve range is also at an approachable price point of Au$26.   Please visit our web site to see the full history of our winery.

We believe our elegant and premium quality cool climate wines would be very suited to the experienced palate of the European consumer.

Our wines are suited to individual wine stores and quality restaurants more than the supermarket areas.

As we have the flexibility to increase our production at any time, with no detriment to the quality of our wine, we are in a position to grow with any market our wines are selling in. We first produced 2,500 cases in 2002, and in 2008 produced 18,000 cases. We sell a large proportion of the grapes we produce and have the option to retain those grapes for our own production when the need arises.

We seek to establish a long term, close working relationship with a distributor and will be ready to give support and back up with visits to the market, promotional material etc.

We will give full support to an importer/distributor by way of marketing material, attending wine shows and with visits to the market place by both our principal and our winemaker.

The quality of our packaging, promotional material and general presentation of our winery may be seen on our website. Xabregas brochures, quality booklets, banners, aprons and other marketing material would be provided.

We would expect to take direction from an importer on what the market place required, what exhibitions/wine shows would be of value to show our wines at, and respond to those requirements.

The business partner with whom we form an alliance would need to demonstrate experience in the market with good contacts. It is not necessary that they have a history of working with Australian wine suppliers, although this would be helpful.

We would see the alliance as one that would grow together, testing the market to see which of our products was most suited and working together to deliver the style of wine most appropriate, and in the volumes most appropriate. Over a period of time, we would be willing to ensure that the wines were produced in the style most acceptable.

With fore-notice, we are able to produce larger volumes of our wines, and our wines are definitely at the premium quality end, suiting independent wine stores, on-trade and corporate customers.

We would welcome direct contact from any interested importers/distributors in Denmark.
