Who bought Argyle Winery?

Answered by Arthur Reyes

Argyle Winery, located in Australia's Petaluma region, has had a few changes in ownership over the years. The winery was initially purchased by Croser's Petaluma Winery, which recognized the potential of the brand and its unique wines. This acquisition allowed Argyle to benefit from the expertise and resources of a larger winery.

In 2001, Croser's Petaluma Winery itself was taken over by Lion Nathan, a well-known drinks giant. This acquisition brought even more opportunities for growth and development to Argyle Winery. Lion Nathan's extensive network and distribution channels allowed Argyle wines to reach a wider audience both domestically and internationally.

As an expert sommelier and brewer, I have had the pleasure of trying wines from Argyle Winery. I must say, their wines truly exemplify the attention to detail and craftsmanship that goes into each bottle. From their wines to their Pinot Noirs, Argyle consistently delivers exceptional quality and expression.

I remember a particular experience where I had the opportunity to taste their Argyle Brut . The delicate bubbles danced on my palate, while the vibrant red fruit flavors and elegant acidity balanced perfectly. It was a wine that truly captured the essence of the vintage and showcased the skill of the winemakers at Argyle.

Argyle Winery has undergone a few changes in ownership throughout its history. From Croser's Petaluma Winery to Lion Nathan and now Distinguished Vineyards & Wine Partners, each owner has contributed to the winery's success and reputation. With a focus on farming vintage-driven wines from exceptional vineyard sites, Argyle continues to produce outstanding wines that showcase the best of Australian winemaking.
