This is a book in two parts, the first written by historian Enid Moodie Heddie and published by Cheshire in 1960, and the second part written by well-known Melbourne writer on wine Frank Doherty, the two sections being joined for publication as one volume in l985.
The present owners of Chateau Tahbilk, the Purbrick family, invited Enid Moodie Heddie in 1960 to write a history of the first hundred years of the existence of a vineyard on the present site. This forms the first and major part of this book. Frank Doherty's contribution traces the recent history of the Tahbilk winery from 1960 to 1985.
