Pettavel Wines

Pettavel is a family owned winery located in the cool climate coastal region of Geelong in Southern Victoria. Our close proximity to the cool Bass Straight and subsequent maritime influenced climate ensures mild summers and vibrant expressive fruit flavours in our grapes. Combined with attentive viticulture and minimal intervention winemaking, our customers can be assured Pettavel wines are expressive in their individuality and consistent in quality.

Pettavel is named after David Pettavel, a Swiss emigrant from a winemaking family. David Pettavel founded the Geelong wine industry upon his arrival in Geelong in 1842, becoming one of the pioneers of the Australian wine industry. The Fitzpatrick family, a fourth generation grape growing family, reintroduced the Pettavel name to the Australian wine industry with the opening of the Pettavel Winery and Restaurant in December 2001. The brand new state of the art winery and restaurant building is positioned on a hilltop and surrounded by Shiraz vineyards. The entire Pettavel portfolio is produced exclusively from estate grown grapes in the Pettavel Winery.

Pettavel’s focus is on the production of premium cool climate estate grown and made wines, and it is our aim to develop a number of international markets for our wines where we can work closely with selected importers to develop the profile of the Pettavel brand. As the owners of Pettavel still have large vineyard areas in the Murray Darling region, Pettavel also produces a range of export wines under the Boolaroo label. These wines are aimed at entry-level consumers and allow Pettavel to cover a range of price points to our customers.
