Kimbolton WinesWho are we? The Case family has grown premium quality, award winning fruit since 1946. In 1998, Len and Judy Case produced a tonne of old vine shiraz from their Kimbolton vineyard to enjoy with friends. It turned out to be a great drop, and the Kimbolton label was born. History. Len is a fourth generation Potts. His mother, Thelma Case (nee Potts), was the ninth child of Frank Potts the Second and grew up at Bleasdale. The Kimbolton property was originally part of the Bleasdale Estate, which was first planted back in 1917. Thelma’s brother Dudley owned the property until he was lost in World War Two. Thelma and her husband Henry bought the property from Dudley’s widow in 1946. The kimbolton property has since been passed on to Len and Judy who continue to run the property today, with the help of their children, Nicole and Bradley. What’s in a name? Kimbolton is a medieval town in Bedfordshire England, from where Judy’s ancestors emigrated. Family tradition has seen the homestead and property bear the Kimbolton name, which has been passed down through the generations. The nameplate can be seen today on the front of Len and Judy’s house in Langhorne Creek. Our wines.
