Peos Estate

Nestled in the heart of Manjimup, Western Australia's stunning southwest corner, Peos Estate is a family-owned winery with a rich history and a commitment to producing world-class wines. Located approximately 300 kilometers southwest of Perth, this boutique winery offers wine enthusiasts a unique experience in one of Australia's most promising wine regions.

History and Heritage

The Peos family, of Macedonian origin, has been an integral part of Manjimup's agricultural landscape for over 90 years. The winery itself was established in 1996 by four brothers - Vic, John, Kon, and Chris Peos - as a tribute to their father Jim and grandfather P.Y. Peos, both of whom had a passion for viticulture and winemaking.

This third-generation venture marks a return to the family's roots, as both Jim and P.Y. Peos cultivated grapes and produced wine in Macedonia before immigrating to Australia in 1951.
