Our Promise to the Sea

For over fifty years seahorses have been the symbol of our family winery. On first glance, winemakers and marine scientists seem like unlikely allies. But we do face a common problem - climate change. Seahorses, much like grapevines, are indicator species that raise the alarm for serious climate-related issues. It's very important we do what we can to reverse their population decline before it's too late. At national and global scales, we partner with organisations that are working to protect seahorses and secure thriving populations of these quirky fishes. On every one of our wines, proudly sits our unique seahorse emblem, our symbol of sustainability. With every sip of Promised Land wine you're helping support our partners at Project Seahorse.

About Project Seahorse

We are proud to partner with Project Seahorse, global experts on seahorse and marine conservation, to raise awareness and funds that help ensure our marine ecosystems are healthy and well-managed. Project Seahorse has won a string of global awards for its effective gains in conservation of seahorses and the ocean. The magic of seahorses has the potential to excite great enthusiasm for marine conservation. Seahorses live in vitally important and threatened coastal habitats and come under pressure from many diverse fisheries. By getting it right for seahorses - such as setting up marine protected areas, reining in bad fishing practices, and regulating wildlife trade - Project Seahorse is also supporting many thousands of other marine species.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

Our goal is to be Australia's best wine company applying best practise principles in environmental management to enhance sustainable business activities and products.
