More than just a winery, Edgecombe Brothers Winery Restaurant expemplifies the spirit of the Swan Valley. Nestled in a prominent
position at the western entrance of the historic Swan Valley, this family owned and operated business does things the old fashioned way,
carving itself a reputation as a local icon.
our history
the fifty acre Swan Valley property was
purchased in 1925 by two brothers
who immigrated to Western Australia
from Worthing in the UK. Don and
Frank Edgecombe developed the
property over the years, focussing in
the 1930s and 40s on mainly table
grapes for export. By the mid 1960s
their efforts shifted to both table and
wine grapes for the local market and
continues today. The founding
brothers’ values of freshness and
friendliness is carried through by the
generations that run the business
today as they continue to grow and
pick their own produce, including table
grapes, melons, pumpkins, citrus,
broad beans, olives and asparagus
(see info in far side panel).
The vines remain an integral part of
the family property, and the family
welcome patrons and friends to hop
into the vineyard at pruning and
picking time to experience working in a
vineyard. You must be dedicated, have
a good work ethic, and not mind either
the freezing cold mornings during
pruning, or the super hot summer days
during picking. Go on, join us.......we
dare you!
our staff
although we are a family owned and
family run business, we also
acknowledge the wonderful people
who help us on a daily basis in keeping
the cogs ticking over.
We have a fantastic team in the
kitchen pumping out fresh, delicious
food for the cafe restaurant, and
backing them up are our terrific
kitchen-support staff.
On the floor we have a friendly bunch
of service staff ready and willing to
make your visit with us a memorable
experience. They are ably managed by
a couple of floor managers, most
notably the smiling, helpful Rita and
the ever popular and very funny Aki.
The cellar door is manned by a couple
of winos who just want to talk wine and
rubbish. Join them for wine tasting
....and you too can talk rubbish.
And amongst them all you will find our
family members - washing dishes,
sweeping floors, filling in for the chef,
and waiting on your table. If you see
us, say hi and have a chat!
king of spears
Asparagus is
grown on the
property and is
hand picked
fresh every day
between the
warmer months
of September
and February.
People travel to Edgies from all over the
Perth metro area to buy green and
purple varieties of this delectable
gourmet vegetable. Frank’s son Alfred,
who is responsible for the asparagus
patch, is affectionately known to locals
as The King of Spears!

dried fruit
Edgecombe Brothers is one of a
few vineyards in the Swan Valley
that still dries its’ own fruit for
use in the cellar door and
restaurant, and to sell to the
public. Flame seedless and
sultana grapes are sundried on
wire racks in the vineyard, with
no additives. Fruit dried in this
manner is good for you and
delicious served with cheese or
soaked in Edgies famous
Muscat Liqueur and served as a
preserve.
