Situated on Holden Road Diggers Rest, Russo Estate was inspired by the fact that 'Houdini' the famous escapologist, was the first aviator to fly in Australia - and he flew from Holden Road Diggers Rest. March 18, 1910 at dawn Houdini flew his Voisin biplane from a paddock over our land and gum trees, where our vineyard now grows.

The vineyard may be sleeping, but there’s still plenty happening at Russo Estate. Come escape the cold, settle in with a glass of wine and enjoy winter in the country. 🤍
