A Promise Fulfilled

The Zapris family arrived in Australia from Greece almost 70 years ago. They left behind not only treasured heirlooms but a strong family tradition of winemaking. At the time, John, the youngest son at age 13, promised his father, Evangelos, that whatever uncertainties awaited them in their new homeland, that one day they would own another vineyard and winemaking would again continue, just as it had in Drimos.

Sir Paz Estate was established in the Yarra Valley in 1997. Sadly, it was 5 years after Evangelos had passed away. 

However, a family tradition had been restored, and a promise, over half a century old, was fulfilled.

 

The Estate

Hero View new.jpg

The Yarra Valley is recognised as one of the premiere winemaking regions of the world and its unparalleled beauty and rich, fertile soil have seamlessly resonated with generations of passionate winemakers. It is here, in this inviting wine oasis, that wine and nature blend in perfect harmony at the acclaimed, family-owned Sir Paz Estate.

Established in 1997, Sir Paz Estate, inspired by a storied history and characterised by a rich Mediterranean ambience, has the good fortune of being the Yarra Valley’s highest altitude vineyard. The captivating views, sweeping across the Yarra Valley, afford guests a moment of solitude to be enchanted by the abundantly rich yet serene landscape.
