Pemberley of Pemberton Chardonnay was awarded a Gold Medal at the 2009 Bird Cameron Timber Towns Wine Show. This beautiful wine was produced from handpicked estate grown Chardonnay grapes from the cool climate Pemberley Vineyard in Pemberton, Western Australia. These grapes were gently pressed then matured in the finest French oak barrels to produce this delicate Chardonnay. Fresh peach and melon flavours are carefully balanced by the fine oak that leads to a complex varietal aroma with a long soft palate

David also planted and manages:
A 35 hectare vineyard at Forest View Vines, Pemberton
A 60 hectare vineyard at the Big Tree Vineyard ,Pemberton
The new 55 hectare vineyard, The Back 9, which is being developed close to the Pemberton township
The 91 hectare Walcott Vineyard on Stirling Rd, Pemberton is also being rejuvenated under David's management.

The fruit from these Rewards Group Limited vineyards is also grown under contract to Houghton Wines and Willow Bridge Estate.

The Big Tree Vineyard was awarded "Best New Vineyard Development" in Western Australia at the WA Wine Industry Awards in 2005.

In 2007 Houghton Wines and Willow Bridge Estate collected amongst their many awards, 8 gold medals, 2 silver medals and 4 bronze medals between them for wines made with fruit grown from these excellent Pemberton vineyards.
