Welcome to Aldersyde Estate


Formerly Piesse Brook Wines (established 1974), Aldersyde Estate is essentially a mother-daughter operation in the Perth Hills, specialising in reds from handpicked, estate-grown fruit.

Larissa Bray is the family's 3rd generation vigneron and takes care of the vines and winemaking while mother, Di Bray, runs cellar door. Lara's brothers, Peter and Michael, together with our extended family - families Boyanich, Tomanovic and Kovacevic - get roped in to lend a hand at critical times, such as vintage and bottling.

Winery dogs, Oban and Zoe, do their best to create chaos during these critical times.
