Crabtree is a small estate situated in the heart of the beautiful Watervale district of the Clare Valley. Robert Crabtree founded the winery in 1981. Today the team is now lead by Winemaker Kerri Thompson with Brendan Pudney and owner/operators Richard Woods and Rasa Fabian making up the small team. The property comprises of 13 hectares of premium handpicked and hand pruned Watervale vineyards and a small modern 100 tonne winery.
Situated in a beautiful secluded valley north west of Watervale, the Olssen vineyard benefits from the shading effect of the steep valley sides, resulting in estate grown wines of great finesse and elegance.
