Bird in Hand is a family winery, literally and metaphorically. Andrew began the company with the support of his parents, Michael and Joy while his brother Justin assisted with marketing and export. Andrew lives and works on the grounds with his wife Susie, who tends the gardens, and their three children, Lalla, Edward, and Oscar. The larger Bird in Hand family also includes a winemaking team, restaurant staff, and marketing and events arm.

This wine has lifted strawberry and cherry blossom aromas with a beautiful blush pink color from skin contact. The palate shows a refreshing mix of cherry, strawberries and ruby grapefruit with fruit sweetness balanced by crisp acidity with a long, clean finish. This wine is vegan friendly.

Dylan Lee, Senior Winemaker

Born in outback Western Australia, Dylan spent much of his childhood in the Great Southern region. On a high school geology field trip, he visited some of the area’s vineyards, igniting an interest in grape growing and winemaking. In 2005, he moved to Adelaide to complete a degree in winemaking at the University of Adelaide. Later, he worked on vintages in the Northern Rhone Valley, Niagara Peninsula, Margaret River and McLaren Vale, learning a diverse range of techniques and philosophies. He moved back to Adelaide in 2010 with his wife, Lillian, bringing his already wide store of knowledge to Bird in Hand, beginning as a cellar hand for the 2011 vintage.
