About:
With roots firmly planted in one of Australia’s oldest wine regions, and one of Australia’s best known wine families, founder Lisa McGuigan is the fourth generation of a dynasty of celebrated vintners, the McGuigans.  Our iconic cellar door nestled in the foothills of the Hunter Valley’s Brokenback Ranges, just outside Pokolbin, reflects our determination to blend the essence of tradition with the magic of innovation.

Launched in 1998 as Hermitage Road, in honour of the street on which Lisa grew up, the brand started small, in the corner of the McGuigan winery. The business grew rapidly, propelled by Lisa’s unique approach to marketing – success which brought the brand into the sights of the French Appellations body which took issue with her use of “Hermitage”, a protected wine region in the Rhone Valley.  And so, Tempus Two, which is Latin for “second time” was born, creating a truly Australian iconic brand.

Our  wines have always stood out, and apart, from the rest.  There is a combination of style, substance and drama in our wines. They showcase familiar and new varietals in dramatic, innovative packaging which, as the first to think outside the packaging square, proved a stand-out success.

Never one for following tradition, or believing that “it can’t be done”, Lisa’s vision for Tempus Two was to create a range of wines which look as fantastic as they taste and which showcase varietal and regional strengths.  Our wines are recognized award winners, in Australia, and abroad.  Our story, and our reputation, continues to grow along with our team but we’ve all remained focused on achieving, day in, day out, Lisa’s dream – wine which looks, and tastes, amazing.
