Foxeys Hangout

This is the venture of Tony Lee and journalist wife Cathy Gowdie. Cathy explains where it all began: We were not obvious candidates for a seachange. When we talked of moving to the country, friends pointed out that Tony and I were hardly back-to-nature types. Do you own a single pair of shoes without heels? asked a friend. At the end of a bleak winter, we bought an old farmhouse on 10 daffodil-dotted acres at Red Hill and planted a vineyard. They planted pinot noir, chardonnay, pinot gris and shiraz on the north-facing slopes of the old farm. JAMES HALLIDAY winecompanion.com.au
