Our Story

Past generations of the Legoe family would indulge in a fine drop set amongst the beautiful landscape of the Woodsoak Property. The current generation, Will, has married his love of fine wine and Aussie farming traditions with the vibrancy and colour of his wee wife, Sonia’s, Indian heritage.

Woodsoak, is located between Robe & Beachport within the picturesque coastal Robe Wine Region.  The property has been in the Legoe family for 70 years as a cattle & sheep enterprise.  In 1998, Will and Sonia planted a 55 acre vineyard and in 2010, we launched our Woodsoak Wines label, our 4th child!

Our boutique business is based on family traditions and we have named 3 of our ten wines after our children, Vijay Cabernet Sauvignon, Raj Shiraz and Rani Rose. We then ran out of children and had to come up with other names!!

Our wine range includes:  Zaahira Sparkling, Santi Sauvignon Blanc, Mayur Chardonnay, Rani Rose, Pyaar Pinot Noir, Leelah Merlot, Raj Shiraz, Vijay Cabernet Sauvignon, Methode Traditionnelle Blanc de Noirs and Methode Traditionnelle Sparkling Shiraz.  Our emblem, the peacock is the revered national bird of India.

18 months ago, we enthusiastically renovated an historic house in the heart of the Main Street of Robe & have now converted it into a quirky outdoor Woodsoak Wine Room. We wheel out our antique Indian bar & offer free wine tastings, glasses/bottles of wine and our signature samosa plate. We absolutely love meeting our customer from all over the world and sharing our wine, our story and our experiences!  We’re always up for a chat!!

Cheers

Will & Sonia Legoe
