David Traeger

Nagambie Lakes Shiraz producer with prestige critical recognition.

David Traeger is situated in Nagambie Lakes, a subregion of Goulburn Valley in Central Victoria. The winery produces Shiraz-focused wines from this warm continental climate, where the variety thrives with ripe, structured character. The flagship Baptista, a pure Shiraz expression, demonstrates the depth the region can achieve. A second Shiraz offering rounds out the portfolio. Both wines have been assessed by Decanter, Wine Spectator, and Wine Enthusiast, establishing a track record of critical attention. Nagambie Lakes' terroir—marked by warm days, cool nights, and varied soils—shapes the intensity and balance typical of Central Victorian Shiraz.
