Happs Estate Wines – Celebrating 40 Vintages

Happs Estate Wines is a family-owned winery perched atop Leeuwin Ridge, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. This year marks a significant milestone as they celebrate their 40th vintage. Erland Ros Happ planted the first vines in 1978 after years of running a pottery business at their Yallingup site. Recognizing the potential for grape growing, Erl expanded their operations by acquiring another farm an hour south in the early 1980s.
With one of the largest wine collections in the region, Happs Estate produces around 40 different wines.

Where Art Meets Winemaking

Both Erl and Ros began their careers as teachers, blending their backgrounds in science and the arts into their winery. Erl is a knowledgeable expert on global climates, while Ros contributes her passion for music education. As patrons of the arts, they actively promote their pottery and art gallery. Happs Estate Wines sources grapes from some of the finest producers in the Margaret River region, ensuring high-quality wines that reflect the local terroir.

A Diverse Range of Grape Varieties

Happs Estate offers a wide selection of wines, including Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Nebbiolo, Grenache, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, and Tannat. The winery crafts intriguing red, white, rosé, sparkling, dessert, and fortified wines, using only the best grapes. They also provide three preservative-free options, catering to sulfite-sensitive customers. Visitors can enjoy a large working pottery studio and gallery, featuring beautiful creations from resident artists available for purchase.
