The Stein Family has a long history of Viticulture in Australia, dating back to 1838 when Johann Stein arrived from Germany bringing with him the first cuttings of Rhine Riesling to survive in Australia. Over a century later, the tradition was revived when in 1976 Robert “Bob” Stein purchased 75 acres of prime wine-growing country on the current site on Pipeclay Lane in Mudgee NSW. From the first plantings of Shiraz the vineyard has grown to 10ha in size with plantings of Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon, Gewürztraminer, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Muscat Today the Winery is in the capable hands of second generation Drew Stein, and his son Jacob. This is a true family business with the grapes being grown, wine made and bottled on site. Jacob returned to Mudgee in 2009 after seven vintages away from home, including Germany and Italy, gaining experience essential to winemaking and viticulture. Robert Stein Winery have over 20 wines to taste at our cellar door, with all grapes grown, wine matured and bottled on site. The cellar door offers tastings of the current range of wines 7days from 10am – 4:30pm. Other attractions at the winery include the Motorcycle Museum and the Pipeclay Pumphouse Restaurant
