The Castel León Story.
A Labour of Love.
Four people, one estate, and a tradition that goes back generations. Watch our film below and see the people behind every bottle.
A piece of southern Spain, at home in the Swan Valley.
Our Estate.
The Castel León estate sits on an elevated block in Herne Hill, overlooking the Swan River and the valley floor below. The residence was built by Mike in the style of Andalucía, the whitewashed architecture of southern Spain that has stayed with him since his first visit. At the rear of the house, a pavilion modelled on a water feature from the Alhambra Palace in Granada completes the picture. It is a personal place, built with intention, and the wine it produces reflects that same care.
"We introduced Castel León to our hotel wine list earlier this year and the response from guests has been wonderful. The Sangiovese in particular has been a standout, pairing beautifully with our Italian inspired menu. Knowing the story and heritage behind the wine makes it even easier to recommend with confidence."
Renata Horvath
"The Grenache is hands down the most enjoyable red I have come across from the Swan Valley. It is approachable without being simple and has a warmth and generosity that makes it perfect for sharing around a table. I have recommended it to everyone I know and will continue to do so."

What Our Customers Say.
