About Harris Organic Wines

Harris Organic Wines started in Baskerville, 20 years ago in 1998. Duncan Harris owner and winemaker has built his certified organic vineyard on sustainable methods and similarly Swan Valley Gourmet have built their cafe on sustainable principles, a great match.

Organic certification
Duncan Harris established his vineyard using sustainable viticultural practices. Along with his concern for the environment, he wanted to make authentic wines; true to their variety and natural environment. The happy side-effect of this was that he was making organic wines. There was a small enthusiastic following for these wines and to confer confidence in his customers, the vineyard and winery became certified organic in 2006.
Duncan believes that organics is indeed the best way to go in any food operation, not only from the point of view of human health, but just as importantly the health of the environment and so sustainable production practices.
“It is important that our customers get the assurance from an independent certifying body about the lack of herbicide and pesticide residues, and validation as well as the quality of our organic wine” says Duncan.

“Although the vineyard and winery is small, the organics movement itself is part of a larger world-wide realisation that to become conscious consumers, the owners want to give something back to the environment. Informed consumers want to know what is going into their goods and foods, and the reassurance that production has not been harmful to the environment - and more power to them!”.

Located 30 minutes from Perth’s CBD, the historic Swan Valley is the oldest wine-growing region in Western Australia.
