Obstetrician and Gynaecologist Bruno Giorgio gave birth to Twin Bays vineyard and winery in 1989. The winery was originally intended as a weekend hobby, but over the past 15 years Bruno's passion and commitment to winemaking has grown, resulting in one of Australia's smallest and finest boutique wineries.

A son of Italian immigrants, it seemed the passion for wine ran in Bruno's blood. Armed with childhood memories of making wine at home, a background in medicine and a handful of romantic notions, he set about establishing the vineyard and winery.

With the help of his family the land was planted, the windbreaks and orchards set out and the modest shed

grew to house a cellar and wine tasting room. To economise, much of the work was done by the Giorgio's and, initially reluctant converts to the winemaking process, Bruno's young family helped dig, prune, pick, crush and bottle, and as the wine and they have matured, access to such lovely wines is proving worth the early years of hard work.

Without formal training Bruno read widely and relied on the advice and support of the many friends he has made in the grape and wine industry. The result is a creative and innovative approach to winemaking, with vintages incorporating unique and experimental wines.
