Clarendon Hills

"Roman Bratasiuk is one of planet earth's greatest winemakers" - Robert Parker Jr, Wine Advocate
5 Star Winery - Halliday Wine Companion

"Clarendon Hills are vineyard and varietal expressionists striving for purity and perfection. We are dedicated to single vineyard terroir wines that rival the best in the world.

Larger than life vigneron, Roman Bratasiuk redefined Australia's fine wine landscape when he established Clarendon Hills in 1990. Knocking on the door of a local grape grower, a warm friendship grew from a handshake and harvest season saw him in the vineyard. Gathering the grapes by hand, the pragmatic vigneron taught himself the art of winemaking and pushed his wines a little further each year. International critics now consider Clarendon Hills one of the world's greatest wine estates." - Clarendon Hills
