Chalk Hill Wines

Vermentino is a new varietal in Australia. Widely planted across the Mediterranean coast of Italy and France, it's well suited to McLaren Vale's coastal location.
Vibrant and aromatic, the wine shows lifted tropical fruit with dried fennel and herbacious notes, and a fresh, zesty finish. A real crowd pleaser!

The combination of a long cold soak maceration and extended time on skin followed by the subtle use of French oak delivers a superb, concentrated Cabernet.

The 45 year old vines planted on sandy loam on the Chalk Hill Vineyard produce small bunches with intense, concentrated flavour. This vineyard consistently produces Cabernet Sauvignon with intense varietal character.

Barbera is an amazing variety that offers great natural fruit balance combined with soft textured tannins. Due to these traits this wine is aged gently in large old oak vats. The leisurely maturation softens and enhances the flavours of this wine. The natural acidity and intense colour of this grape variety is intensified by the vineyard location. Our Barbera is planted at the very top of Chalk Hill in shallow ironstone sand. This location allows for the production of small berries with great depth of flavour and velvety tannins.
