Superfine wool production is one of the main enterprises on the farm, but it also runs a small 100 head prime beef cattle herd, and 1300 head prime lamb flock.

Through development over the last decade, the farm now includes an irrigated cropping program, a 4ha vineyard for producing cool-climate wine, and the Bangor Wine and Oyster Shed, which is a food and wine retail business.

Bangor’s diverse landscape called for a diverse approach, one that Matt delivered in spades.
