BV Was There: 2010 to Today, a New Era
A new millennium brought new energy and new possibilities. The early aughts were filled with experimentation and planning that paved the way for exciting developments in the second half of the decade, from remarkable releases to talented young leaders and ownership whose sole focus is crafting outstanding wine.
Under the care of Treasury Wine Estates since 2016, BV is renovating for our next century, not only restoring the grandeur of our historic estate but preserving the innovative vision of our founders. We’re excited to celebrate our grand reopening this coming summer and sharing our award-winning wines with you in our tasting room anytime!
