Our History

Not many wineries can claim to have been operational for 21 years. Yet with minimum fanfare and single minded determination Tuck's Ridge has been producing wonderfully expressive, superbly balanced cool climate wines for even longer. Now in our 22nd year of operation we continue to do the things, produce the wines and encourage the type of enjoyment and loyalty other wineries can only dream about.

Tuck's Ridge is proudly independently owned and remains steadfastly boutique in nature. This is a most important consideration for our team since it enables almost anybody you meet at Tuck's Ridge to have had an important influence on the wine you are drinking or the atmosphere you are enjoying. No matter how they spin it none of the large multinational wine companies can ever make such a statement, least not truthfully.

With the foundations laid on the home "Buckle" vineyard and cellar door that most people understand to be Tuck's Ridge we can assure the wine drinking world of a yearly supply of world class wine. Periodically in our history we have undertaken limited moments of expansion; increased production and wider distribution. However at present we consider the future as small parcel production of cool climate fruit sourced from the Mornington Peninsula. This enables our range of wines to be entirely Tuck's Ridge labeled and to fully express the evocative nature and irresistible memories that come from enjoying great wine good food and sharing in the company of friends and families.
