Celebrating cool climate wines

From this historic estate in the Southern Highlands of NSW

The lengthy ripening period associated with cool climate viticulture makes possible the nuanced flavours and texture that winemakers everywhere strive for. But cool climate viticulture, anywhere in the world, comes with a particular set of challenges. The Southern Highlands is no exception. Industry is needed and intelligence too. A recognition that quality must always take precedence over yield because despite the challenges only cool climate wines deliver the wonderful levels of complexity and interest that the long ripening period makes possible. At Rotherwood we understand these demands and believe each of our wines reflect in their own way this continual pursuit of excellence.
