All Saints Estate harmoniously blends old and new, with a modern extension complementing the existing castle. The design pays homage to the estate’s heritage while embracing a forward-looking approach, incorporating natural materials, panoramic views, and curated interiors. This project revitalises the winemaking experience while also boosting tourism in the region.
The scope of works encompassed a project area of 800m2, with refurbishments made to the cellar door and Bonnie café, alongside a newly constructed restaurant, Kin, an extension that sits beside the existing main castle. Both the architecture and interior works maintain cohesive ties to the estate’s heritage while imbued with poignant inflections gesturing to the future of this family business.
Taking the form of a light contemporary structure sitting on the landscape, the new architecture is a particularly fitting symbol for the winery estate’s evolution, as it emerges from the history and solidity of the existing castle.
