At the Winery
Winery
De Salis Wines was established in 1999 by research scientist Charlie Svenson as a garagiste (garage) winery on Sydney's northern beaches. After an eight year search, he and wife Loretta acquired the Lofty Vineyard.
At 1,050 metres elevation on the northern slope of Mount Canobolas outside Orange, the Lofty Vineyard is one of Australia's most ideally located, stunningly beautiful and highest grape growing locations. The cold climate, volcanic soils and dry growing season are perfect for Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. De Salis practise the dark art of minimalist winemaking, seeking to capture their unique micro-environment in their wines.
De Salis's single vineyard Lofty range heads their lineup, with the Lofty Red and Blue Label Pinot Noirs standing out. They are known for their sparkling wines, particularly the Blanc de Blanc.
