About Corang Estate Wines
Corang Estate is borne of a love of nature and the outdoors, combined with a passion for great wine.
Nestled in the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range at an altitude of 600-700 metres, Corang Estate is an idyllic mountain bushland setting in the Southern Tablelands of NSW. Set on 120 acres and bordered by the Corang River, Corang Estate encapsulates tranquillity, fresh air and natural beauty.
Kangaroos and wallabies can be seen hopping out of the tree line to feed in the early evening, platypus frolic in the early morning stillness of the river and black cockatoos squawk in the trees, while eagles soar in the thermals up above. It’s the unique combination of mountain scenery, bushland, animals and the river that is the inspiration for the Corang Estate brand.
Initially bought in 2002 as a bush block for an outdoor retreat and a slice of riverside paradise in the NSW Southern Tablelands, there was always the seed of an idea that one day it would make a great vineyard site. The stony soils and climatic conditions match those of many of the world’s great wine growing regions.
Jill and Michael Bynon built a traditional-style cottage on the property and have spent many years enjoying weekends away from the city and busy corporate lives, each visit wishing the time was a little longer. In 2016 it was time to plant that seed of an idea and make the vineyard and regional wine selection a reality.
