Vignerons: Brother and sister team of Arthur and Mandy Jones

One of the oldest and smallest wineries in the Rutherglen District. Jones Winery and Vineyard was established in the 1860s. Mandy Jones followed in her grandfather and fathers' footsteps and became a winemaker.
The wines produced at the winery reflect the soils and climate conditions of the area and the year using the Jones winemaking style in open wooden vats dating from the 1860s.
