Two lovers of wine, Paul Byron and Harold (Ralph) Dunning joined forces with business specialist Rose Eveson, vigneron Andrew Lane and winemaker at the time Luke Eckersley to form Byron & Harold. With more than 65 years combined experience in the Australian wine trade, they meticulously seek out parcels of wine that they know Australian wine lovers would love to drink.
Based in the Great Southern region of Western Australia, Byron & Harold deliver wines with flavour, wines that are true to their variety – wines with provenance.
Great Southern is the ideal environment to craft truly sensational wines. The deep, rich soils, combined with the cooling Southern Ocean breezes allow for a long, even ripening period in the vineyard. This is what it is all about – warm days with cool nights that deliver to Byron & Harold wines that express unique regional and varietal characters with finesse, elegance and definition.
Did you know...
The 'Harold' in Byron & Harold also owns and operates a cattle stud at the Upper Allyn in the Barrington Tops just north of Newcastle. So while all our winemaking and sourcing is based in Great Southern we also have very strong Hunter Valley ties.
