Sue Trott is one of Australia’s few long established women vignerons. After many years of growing grapes for some of Australia’s best known wineries, she decided it was time to select some of her best parcels of fruit in Blewitt Springs for her own label. In July 1999, she established Hillgrove Wines Pty Ltd.  Hillgrove is committed to the production of premium McLaren Vale wines.

five geese has been listed as one of the best wineries of the McLaren Vale region by James Halliday in his latest Australian Wine Companion 2009, and has received a full five star rating. See his latest review of the 2005 five geese Shiraz on our Reviews and Awards page for 2005 Shiraz.
