The Talisman Winery and Estate - A Family Legacy of Fine Wines

Talisman Winery and Estate is a family-owned winery nestled in the picturesque Ferguson Valley, part of the Geographe Wine Region in Western Australia. Founded in 2009 by the Robertson family, the winery transitioned from selling high-quality fruit to crafting exceptional wines, driven by a passion for viticulture and a commitment to quality.

The Robertson family's journey from fruit producers to esteemed winemakers is a testament to their dedication and love for creating outstanding Australian wines.

Stunning Vineyards with Scenic Views

The Talisman vineyards are located in the rolling hills of Ferguson Valley, surrounded by the natural beauty of Wellington National Park. The family chose this site not only for its breathtaking landscapes but also as a weekend retreat. In 1999, they partnered with a local viticulturalist to plant the first vines, setting the stage for their winemaking adventure.

Signature Wines to Savor

The grape varieties at Talisman were carefully selected based on the unique soil and terrain. Today, the winery produces a range of wines, including Zinfandel, Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet, and Riesling, all crafted by winemaker Peter Stanlake. Notable wines to try include the award-winning 2015 Zinfandel, 2017 Chardonnay, 2018 Riesling, 2016 Merlot, 2019 Arida, 2013 Malbec, Spook Rock Red, Spook Rock White, 2010 Aged Release Riesling, 2013 Cabernet Malbec, and 2016 Barrique Sauvignon Blanc Fume. Each of these wines has received accolades both domestically and internationally, making them a must-try for wine enthusiasts.

Hands down the best cellar door in Western Australia. That's without taking into consideration the unbelievable wine at exceptional prices. Can't recommend this place and Kim's wines enough.

We had such a wonderful time at Talisman Wines. Kim was such a kind and knowledgeable person, telling us the history and information about each wine we tasted. The scenery was incredible, a quiet and relaxing space. Bought a few amazing wines (loved the sparkling and Chardonnay). Highly recommend anyone in Ferguson Valley to go to Talisman!

While touring around the Ferguson Valley, we called in on our way to Honeymoon Pool. The winery is set in a stunning location with a beautiful outlook over the water. It was also really peaceful so it was just a lovely place to be. We were greeted by Kim who was an exceptional host, encouraging us to try his award winning wines while sharing the history of his winery and the local area. This was by far the highlight of our trip. We left with a few bottles of wine (which are excellent by the way) and fond memories of a perfect afternoon.

This wonderful winery is completely secluded and in the middle of nature. The variety of varieties to taste is unique. All of the wines were of exceptional quality. When we arrived, the gentleman was busy with customers and we waited. To pass the time, we were given a sparkling Riesling to try, which is produced using the champagne method. A wonderful place to enjoy.

Phenomenal setting, served by the owner himself who was friendly and knowledgeable. These wines were fantastic! Award winning and better than many of the wineries we’ve visited in Margaret River.
