Partners in wine - Meet the O'Bies

Two mates who met as 11 year olds, and have dreamed and plotted their own wine brand for the last 30 years.

David has had a stellar career in law and politics, but never moved far from his love of the land, in particular farming sites in recognised wine country around Western Victoria.

Damon has spent his working life embedded in the international world of wine, training in premium wine retail followed by stints in Margaret River, Langhorne Creek, McLaren Vale and the Clare Valley.

Torquay and the surf coast is home country for both David and Damon with strong family connections and a deep seated love of the amazing beaches, beautiful rolling country and the relaxed, tight knit community.

Dave and Janine (his better half!) own the amazing Bellbrae property, Glenkeen Estate, which is the home base for Glenkeen Wines, and has a new vineyard and cellar door in the works, which will show off the amazing wine terroir of the Surf Coast, and where with a glass in hand, unforgettable moments are sure to be created.
