Paralian Wines

South Australia | McLaren Vale

Our Review

Charlie Seppelt and Skye Salter have covered many miles and worked in many places since they met in '08 working the vintage at Hardys Tintara in McLaren Vale. By the time they established Paralian Wines in ’18 they had accumulated 46 vintages between them, working for others. The name is a noun for someone who lives by the sea. Charlie’s first exposure to McLaren Vale was as a vintage casual at d’Arenberg and it was vinous love at first sight. He and Skye headed off overseas, a high point undertaking vintage in Burgundy. They then agreed that McLaren Vale, and in particular Blewitt Springs, was the place they wanted to make grenache and shiraz with high fragrance and brightness. No fining or additions are used other than SO2 and little requirement for new oak. -JAMES HALLIDAY
