Victoria’s Strathbogie Ranges offer a rugged landscape, breathtaking views and an unforgiving climate. It’s a backdrop that has resulted in award-winning wine. Fowles Wine aims to farm with the utmost respect for the natural environment. It’s a commitment that has transplanted the owner from a chance to work as a New York lawyer to an expert in cold-climate wine, 90 minutes outside Melbourne. To learn more Matt Fowles joins me now to discuss:

  • Matt is based in the Strathbogie Ranges and shares his favourite spot on this cold landscape.
  • We hear the backstory of how Matt came to own a vineyard in 2006, as he has a background in law.
  • Some of Matt’s learnings from the first few years in business.
  • Matt has a real focus on respect for the environment and shares some of the farm practices.
  • Using the insectarium to boost the number, and biodiversity of insect life on the farm.
  • Working with local, and many endangered micro-bats as a non-chemical solution to the issue unwanted pests.
  • Working with the chaos of the natural landscape is Matt’s passion and it’s inspired a recently released vintage called ‘FieldSong’.
  • Sharing the farm with a restaurant which also sends food waste back to the chooks.
  • What Matt loves most about life on the land.
  • A common misconception of wine.
  • The most unexpected experience Matt has had while on this journey.
  • His ultimate dream for the future of Fowles Wine.

We hope to see you back on the road soon, to learn more about how Australia grows on the next episode of Australian Farmers with Angie Asimus.
