DKM WINES - A DANNY MORRISON PROJECT

Biodynamic wines from Australia & New Zealand made for pure enjoyment...

“These wines celebrate those who choose to break the mould, the trail-blazers and mavericks! Doing things by the book was never in my make-up, and as a New Zealand cricketer I was proudly able to defy the odds.

A highlight of my career was undoubtedly the hat-trick I took versus India in March 1994. That, and the friendships I have made along the way. One of those is with Leon Hill, fellow mould-breaker and Australian producer of new world wines. We are both beyond proud to share these biodynamic wines with you.“

The story behind our wines

DKM Wines started out as passion project between two friends who share a love of cricket, good wines and spending time enjoying both with the people they care about most.

Introduced by Leon’s brother, Danny had been buying Leon Hill’s South Australian organic and biodynamic wines for about five years when he visited Leon’s McLaren Vale vineyard during the 2022 T20 World Cup. They shared so much common ground, but the most noteworthy being their maverick personalities, courage to do things their way, fierce love for their families and of course… their love of delicious red wines. The rest, as they say, is history.

Our wines

Our range of wines launched with The Hat Trick 2022 Shiraz from South Australia, with a Cabernet Sauvignon hot on its heels. This range will be completed by a New Zealand Rosé and a crisp Sauvignon Blanc.
