Peos Estate Wines
Manjimup has been home to the Macedonian-born Peos family for more than 80 years.
With viticulture in their historical veins, brothers Vic, John, Kon and Chris banded together in 1996 to create their dream vineyard as a legacy to their late father Jim Peos and late grandfather PY Peos.
A passionate farmer, PY Peos began cultivating grapes and producing wine whilst living in Macedonia almost a century ago. He passed this love of wine down to his son Jim who continued to farm grapes and make wine in Macedonia until he joined PY and the
rest of his family in Australia in 1951.
Upon first arriving in Australia, the Peos family settled in Manjimup, attracted by its rich soils and ideal crop-growing weather.
Their undying devotion to living off the land has seen them farm everything from dairy cattle and beef to mixed horticulture, potatoes, cauliflowers and beans.
The establishment of Peos Estate winery by the third generation Peos brothers has turned the family dynasty full-circle back to where it belongs – growing grapes and producing wine to remember.
The Peos brothers work hard to keep family traditions alive and ensure Peos Estate follows the customs that were passed down by their late father and grandfather.
One of these traditions is the philosophy of “minimal intervention” processing which allows the wine to be produced in the most natural way. This ensures the regional and varietal characters of the grapes are captured and retained in all Peos wines.
