Established in 1859, Morris is the oldest winery in Rutherglen. While no longer owned by the original family, its fifth-generation winemaker (David Morris) is still in charge. Its dusty cellar door was designed by esteemed architect Robin Boyd with gallery windows looking out to its wine barrels and dirt production floor. Red and fortified wines are the standout offerings.
