Peos Estate
Brand information
Located in Manjimup, Peos Estate handcrafts premium wine and is 100% family owned and operated by the Peos family for more than 80 years. This boutique region is one of the most remote wine districts in the world and is home to some of the globe’s oldest soils. This, combined with the area’s elevation, pristine water and cool temperatures, means Manjimup is perfectly poised to consistently produce world-class wines. Brothers Vic, John, Kon and Chris banded together in 1996 to create their dream vineyard as a legacy to their late father, Jim Peos, and late grandfather, Py Peos.
The brand consists of 3 ranges: Four Aces, Four Kings and Four Jacks. Four Aces’ range is named after the four magnificent Karri trees that are nearly 75 meters tall and over 400 years old and are located down the road from our winery in Manjimup. Four Kings’ range is named after the four Peos brothers. Four Jacks’ range of wines is named after the next generation of the Peos clans, who are growing up quickly; ready to take over the responsibility of running the family business from their fathers.

Background
Grapes were picked during the early hours of the morning while it was cool to allow cold soaking to gently extract colour and skin tannins. The grapes were fermented in open fermenters to allow gentle pump-overs three times a day. Post alcoholic fermentation the wine was transferred to 30% new French and American oak barrels and 70% older French barrels for malo-lactic fermentation. The wine was left to mature for 18 months before bottling. The wine was fined and filtered before bottling
