Wild Duck Creek Estate is a renowned winery located in Heathcote, Victoria, Australia. Founded by David and Diana Anderson, the estate has become one of the cult producers of powerful Australian red wines.
The vineyards are planted on Heathcote’s distinctive Cambrian soils, rich in iron and minerals, which are particularly well suited for Rhône grape varieties. Shiraz is the flagship grape of the estate, often complemented by small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon or other varieties.
The wines are known for their depth and concentration, often displaying flavors of blackberry, ripe plum, dark chocolate, pepper and licorice. Despite their richness, the best bottlings show impressive balance and structure.
Signature wines such as Duck Muck, Springflat Shiraz and Alan’s Cabernet Sauvignon have earned international acclaim. Wild Duck Creek Estate remains one of the most distinctive and sought-after producers from the Heathcote region.
