Charles Melton Wines, Company
Charles Melton Wines has produced premium Barossa red wines, always at our winery on Krondorf Road, since 1984. It was in the mid 80's that Charlie and a small band of Barossa winemakers turned their winemaking efforts to what was considered then a couple of unfashionable varieties; Shiraz and Grenache.
With these varieties, Charlie built a small range of classic dry reds including a Grenache/Shiraz/Mourvedre blend called the Nine Popes. These wines were initially styled on those from the Rhone but are now considered leading examples of the varieties in their own right.

One of the great advantages to be had in vintage 2011 was to pick early.
Styles that rely on freshness and natural acidity were picked before some of the problems created by unseasonal rain arrived because we pick our Rose of Virginia fruit at low baumes, it came into the winery...
