Description
The Wanderer Wines was established by Andrew Marks in 2005. As a negociant, Andrew sources locally grown Yarra Valley fruit and vinifies it at Gembrook Hill Vineyard.

Minimal handling in the winery to produce wines of flavour, texture and intensity.
Born in Melbourne, Andrew Marks studied winemaking at Roseworthy in Adelaide. His thirst for adventure lead him from winemaking at Penfolds to many vintages overseas in France, the US and in Spain. Returning to his family estate, Gembrook Hill Vineyard in 2005, he embarked on his next adventure by starting the Wanderer Wines. With a negociant philosophy of purchasing small quantities of high-quality fruit then minimally handling them in the winery. The vision is to produce intense wines with great flavour and texture.
