Dellys Vineyard

Owned by Vincent Gere, former chief winemaker of Blue Pyrenees Estate, and his father Henri, who was cellarmaster of Châtteaux Pontet-Canet, Malescasse and Lafon-Rochet. The property, including the 5ha of shiraz, and 3.5ha of cabernet sauvignon, is situated close to the Blue Pyrenees Estate, and shares similar very deep soils. The business is primarily focused on export markets, but a certain amount of wine is sold direct to restaurants and premium restaurants in Australia. Exports to France, Switzerland, Singapore, and Hong Kong. -JAMES HALLIDAY
