The vineyard takes it name from the nearby 
Devil's Lair cave - an ancient, mysterious burial ground known to have been inhabited as long as 40,000 years ago. 

Fossil remains of the elusive Tasmanian Devil discovered on the site are believed to be the origin of the cave's name. 

Situated on the southern end of the Leeuwin Peninsula in Western Australia, the 200ha estate is planted to noble varieties in deep draining ironstone gravel. 

Fruit for the vineyard was first vintaged under the estate's own label in 1990. Prior to this the annual crush was sold to other wineries. Only Devil's Lair grown fruit is used in the estate labels with approximately 500 tonnes of fruit processed annually.

It is a goal that the vineyard's unique personality be expressed through each wine. Closely guarding this estate grown philosophy, Devil's Lair deliberately limits crop yields and thereby has complete control over fruit quality and intensity.
