The Bussell name is famously entrenched in Margaret River history, recognised by the township of Busselton which was named after them. The Bussell’s were a distinguished pioneering family. Brothers Alfred, John, Charles, Lenox and Vernon emigrated from England to Western Australia in 1829.
On arriving at the Swan River Colony in March 1830, the Bussell brothers were advised that most of the good land near the Swan River had already been granted. The Governor of Western Australia, Sir James Stirling suggested they instead join with a number of other families in joining a new sub-colony at Augusta.
The following month, Stirling sailed with a party of prospective settlers to the south west corner of the state. After arriving at the mouth of the Blackwood River, the party spend four days exploring the area. Stirling then confirmed his decision to establish a sub colony and the town of Augusta declared at the site.
For four years the brothers tried unsuccessfully to establish a farm, initially at Augusta and then further up the Blackwood River. The brothers had immense difficulty clearing the land, and found the soil not particularly good for farming.
This Wilyabrup Estate is the living dream of Francesca and Gianfranco Anderle.
The vineyard is planted on the very best of classic Margaret River gravel soil, with a beautiful Northern aspect.
All wines are made on site, carefully hand crafted with generations of winemaking experience and the passion of the real wine lovers.
[This winery may no longer be operating.] Winemaker Sam Glaetzer leads the Cartwheel winemaking team, bringing
with him a wealth of award winning experience and the talent that has become synonymous with the Glaetzer name in Australian winemaking circles.
Sam Glaetzer is a winemaker with an unmistakable pedigree. Born in South Australia's Mt Gambier in 1974, Sam grew up amongst winemakers of an extremely high-calibre. His father, Colin, is currently working as a winemaker and Sam's uncle is well-known Wolf Blass legend John Glaetzer.
During his youth Sam lived in such renowned wine growing areas as Rutherglen, the Barossa Valley and Great Western.
Due to this constant exposure to the highs and lows of life as a winemaker and despite completing qualifications as an engineer, Sam decided to continue the Glaetzer family traditition and completed the world-famous Roseworthy winemaking course at Adelaide University.
While at university, Sam worked as a cellarhand at Barossa Valley Estates and went on to various roles within Beringer Blass, using his engineering background to become Environmental Engineer and working through to his current position as one of the Senior Winemakers.
Sam has a desire to make wines that consumers the world-over can enjoy, and is well on the way to achieving this goal with the release of the new Cartwheel range.
Married to another Beringer Blass winemaker, Kirsten Glaetzer, and with brother Ben also in the field, Sam has little chance of getting away from winemaking. However, when he does take a break, he enjoys his time mountain bike riding, cooking and travelling.

The Credaro family first settled in Margaret River in 1922 as a pioneering family to the region, after migrating from Northern Italy. Initially involved in farming and the timber industry, small plots of vines were planted to provide the family with table wine.
Cesar Credaro was the first generation of the family to reside in the area of Margaret River and he worked in the one of the first vineyards in the region. Though it no longer exists today, it was a five acre vineyard that was established around 1915, near Commonage Road. He would work on this property whenever possible, between his farming and timber interests.
Cesar, with the help of the family took some cuttings from the Yallingup vineyard where he worked and planted an acre of the Italian Red Variety (Fragola) at Carbunup. The family would make a parcel of wine every year, for themselves and the neighbouring families. The Fragola has now evolved from site to site with each generation of the family over the years. This wine today is known as the Credaro Family Estate Fragola.
Today the family manages 120 hectares of vines in the sub-regions of Carbunup, Treeton, Yallingup and Wallcliffe. The Credaro family own three separate vineyards, with current plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz and Merlot and two small plots of Fragola and Gewurztraminer.
The Credaro Winery is situated in Carbunup and was built in 2003. The Credaro Family Estate wines identify the best parcels of fruit from selected vineyards owned and managed by the family.

The Juniper story starts with the three exceptional vineyards we own – each as unique as a fingerprint – which sit on some of the most ancient and prized viticultural soils in the world.
Juniper’s Wilyabrup dry-grown vineyard was planted in 1973 and delivers extraordinary Cabernet Sauvignon. The southerly, cooler Karridale close-planted vineyard (est.1997) supplies us with remarkable, world-class Chardonnay, whilst our Metricup site, planted just to the north on virgin pastoral land in 2008, was established with greater know-how and innovation, and in time, may produce the most exceptional fruit of the three. Each of these vineyards is tended with the utmost respect, framed by a long-term outlook to preserve soil health and foster vine resilience, to produce grapes which distinctly and faithfully express their origin.
Juniper was established in 1998 by Roger Hill and Gillian Anderson, as a small WA family-owned business, driven by a passion for Cabernet Sauvignon. Continuing the work of his parents, Tom Hill is guiding the operation into its ‘second act’ with the focus of the business squarely on Cabernet, and also Chardonnay.

The wine is made using small batch techniques; highest quality French oak barrels and meticulous attention to winemaking detail. 2014 marks the centenary year for Killerby, to commemorate this achievement we have created ‘The Killerby Icon Cabernet Sauvignon’ marking 100 years of trading in the south west.

We started searching for just the right site to plant a vineyard in 2002, and eventually found our property at Chapman Hill in 2003. Our Whicher Ridge brand ideas crystallised into a plan to build up a range of six regional wines over the next few years.
After much research (involving wine tasting of course!), in 2004 and 2005 we planted three of Bordeaux's great varieties, sauvignon blanc, petit verdot and cabernet sauvignon, as well as a lesser known Rhone variety, viognier on our farm.
We decided that our Whicher Ridge shiraz and riesling would come from the Frankland River region, and that we would also make a Margaret River Chardonnay. After searching for just the right vineyards for each of these varieties, we made our first Riesling and Shiraz in 2009, and the first release of our Chardonnay is the 2012.
