About Our Winery

A hearty Great Southern welcome to Rising Star Wines!

Originally planted in 1989, Rising Star Vineyard is located in the picturesque Scotsdale Valley only 5 minutes from the town of Denmark, Western Australia.

This massive wine region, the “Great Southern” is famously known for it’s rich soils and an ideal cool climate providing perfect conditions for slow ripening and full fruit flavour development in the vineyard.

in 2005

Purchased in 2005 by Texans Paul and Gwen Hyatt, the couple saw the potential to enhance and nurture this dynamic boutique vineyard in a picturesque WA location.

Oyster Nacho's for breakfast after a great Easter Weekend here at Rising Star Wines with @doctorzinc! Inspired by @robbwalsh and @chefdavidgarrido these are freshly shucked South Australian Oysters lightly fried in a corn meal (polenta) and @artisanbrewing WIT beer batter and my favorite salsa. Awesome way to cap off a superb weekend!

Ok, I love my beer, too. So am doing my annual volunteer work for the RAS of WA by judging beer at the Perth Royal Beer Show in Claremont.
