Dalwhinnie
The Jones family have been making wine at Dalwhinnie since 1976. Nestled in the rugged Victorian Pyrenees, the family vineyard sits in a vast natural amphitheatre, high above sea level but protected from frost. This unique terroir results in perfectly-ripened grapes, saturated with flavour.
The Jones' unwavering commitment to organic viticulture - picking fruit and pruning vines by hand - is obvious in the final product; the incredible care taken at every stage of production has long been the foundation of Dalwhinnie's sterling reputation. Today, their 16 hectare, fully-matured vineyard now produces some of the most premium shiraz, chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon in Australia.
"In Dalwhinnie, the Joneses have happened upon that rare but blessed confluence of factors: site, soil, climate, cultivars, viticultural practices and sensitive winemaking. Sit back and watch, as Dalwhinnie etches a name for itself, not only among the great wines of Australia, but the world." - Huon Hooke
