About Coppabella Wines
Coppabella is the first locally owned and operated winery in Tumbarumba to be awarded 5 stars by James Halliday. This puts us another step closer to giving the region the recognition it deserves.
There are few places in Australia cool enough to craft world class wines from early ripening varieties such as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. That this can be achieved in Southern NSW is among the most exciting stories in Australian wine making today.
Jason and Alecia Brown were seduced by the well credentialed, high altitude, alpine vineyard. The purity and serenity of the site was intoxicating, the potential to create the ultimate expression of cool climate wines on mainland Australia, was impossible to refuse. Under the Brown’s ownership the entire vineyard has been transformed.
Rather than just grow grapes for multi-nationals, all of the vineyard’s fruit is now made into wine under the Coppabella label. The name Coppabella pays tribute to the original cattle station that occupied the area in the 1800’s.
