The origin of Matilda's Estate was an 150 acre of apple orchards set in Denmark, Western Australia.
In late 1980’s, Pam and Don Turnbull acquired the property, christened it Matilda’s Meadow and began the planting of dry grown vines, which include Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Shiraz.
Brenden Smith of West Cape Howe Wines was the first winemaker of Matilda's grapes. Matilda's wine was the first wine to have been produced at West Cape Howe.
