Picardy Wines

Picardy Wines is a cool-climate producer based in Pemberton, a small timber town nestled in Western Australia's South West, roughly 335 kilometres south of Perth. Established in 1993, the winery has built its reputation around varieties that thrive in the region's cooler growing conditions — Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Shiraz.

The Wines

Picardy's focus on cool-climate viticulture shapes everything in the glass. Pemberton's climate and elevation make it well-suited to varieties that struggle in warmer parts of WA, and Picardy leans into this with its three signature wines. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in particular benefit from the long, temperate growing season, which allows for gradual ripening and the kind of structure and finesse those varieties reward. Shiraz here tends toward a more restrained, cool-climate style compared to what you'd find further north in the Swan Valley or Margaret River.

Cellar Door Experience

Visitors to Picardy can taste wines at the cellar door, browse the wine shop, and join tours of the property. Whether you're new to Pemberton wines or a returning visitor, the cellar door offers a straightforward way to work through the range and get a sense of what the region produces at this end of the spectrum. It's worth checking the website ahead of your visit to confirm current opening hours and tour availability.

Getting There

Pemberton sits approximately 335 kilometres south of Perth via the South Western Highway — around a three-to-four hour drive depending on conditions. The town is accessible by car and caravan, making it a practical stop if you're doing a longer South West road trip.
