Looking forward to welcoming you to the new Cellar Door. ‘Matilda’ the resident Tiger Moth will greet you at the door. Take in the story of Brian Edwards and his flight to honour his Bomber Pilot Father and raise money for Legacy. Hear about their Underwater Wine lying at the bottom of Flinders Bay in Augusta. Book a seated flight in the ‘’Wings’ or lean on the bar and enjoy the extensive views. Look up and admire the builders Craftmanship on the ceiling. The renovated hangar houses the Works of photographer Russell Ord and other local artists.
Edwards Wines Cellar Door is situated a short 7 minute drive North West of Margaret River on the corner of Caves Road and Ellen Brook Road. Producing Estate grown varietals Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Shiraz and Cabernet. With new plantings of Merlot, Grenache, Malbec and Cabernet Franc. The winery honours the story of founder Brian Edwards who set out on an epic adventure in a tiny Tiger Moth (Matilda), flying solo from Binbrook in England (where his Father was last posted before being declared MIA in WW2) to Perth, Western Australia. Brian, swayed by his passion for Shiraz and the potential he saw in the Margaret River region, then began to follow another dream. Discovering a property where he could firstly land Matilda and secondly plant grapes. What started as a simple tree change grew into a thriving family business. Fast-forward 5 years. The Edwards family have partnered with the Walsh family who have a long history in the area. The Walsh and Edwards family now continue the tradition of high quality and leading by example in the Wine Industry. Enjoy the picturesque views across the Vineyard, admire the new building and learn about the Underwater Wine lying at the bottom of Flinders Bay in Augusta. The team have created a Cellar Door masterpiece to pay homage to Brian, Matilda, their journey and inspirational wines you will want to share with family and friends.

The new cellar door is amazing, our only regret is not being able to stay longer! We loved reading the history of Matilda. The wines were even better than we remember. We especially loved the chocolates to pair with some wines. We had such a great time we've signed up and look forward to getting our Edwards deliveries during the year. Will definitely return when next down south.

A beautiful modern cellar door with a restaurant to be opened before end 2024. The building is astonishing and the story of the biplane and its travels is amazing. The wines are delightful. The sea-aged wines sell out so join the wine club and have first dibs! There is also a photographic gallery on site. Another beautiful building.

Simply sensational! What a wonderful experience we had with the team at Edwards when we popped in for a tasting. The architecture of the cellar door, the story of Brian Edwards and Matilda, the stunning outlook and importantly, some incredible wine - all made for a wonderful time. Heading home with 6 bottles and thankfully an order form.
Will bring back family and friends and can’t wait till the restaurant opens!
