The Helen’s Hill wine range holds the spirit of those who have gone before us. It celebrates passion, persistence and the genuine connection between people and land.
Each wine is hand crafted and under goes an arduous selection process before it makes it into a Helen’s Hill bottle. As we know, great wine is made in the vineyard and as such only small select parcels of fruit from certain rows of our single vineyard site are hand picked at harvest. Each wine is fermented in select French oak barrels under the watchful eye of winemaker Scott McCarthy. Prior to bottling each barrel is tasted and ranked with only the best barrels being selected for the Helen’s Hill range of wines.

Helen’s Hill Chardonnay

Highly Recommended (2008 vintage)
“This is a perfectly poised chardonnay. The vibrant white peach combines beautifully with the toasted cashew aromas and flavours. Very lively and long with a lovely acid finish.”
Winewise

Silver medal (2008 vintage) - Royal Melbourne Wine Show 2009

94/100 points (2006 vintage)
“Vibrant colour; good concentration of varietal chardonnay fruit and fine oak. Good weight and texture with a long even finish. Very well-made wine.”
James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2009

Helen’s Hill Shiraz

93/100 points (2006 vintage)
“A cool-climate shiraz profile with spice and pepper, but also showing fully ripe fruit in a lush black fruit and licorice spectrum; good tannin and oak management.”
