Winery & Vintage Info
Charles Melton Wines has produced premium Barossa red wines, at our winery on Krondorf Road since 1984. It was in the mid 1980's that Charlie and a small band of Barossa winemakers turned their winemaking efforts to what was considered then to be a couple of unfashionable varieties; Shiraz and Grenache.
With these varieties, Charlie built a small range of classic dry reds including a Grenache/Shiraz/Mataro blend called the Nine Popes. These wines were initially styled on those from the Rhone but are now considered leading examples of the varieties in their own right.
Sourced from the family vineyards in the Barossa Valley and Charlie's father‐in‐law's vineyard in Clare, The Father‐in‐Law Shiraz showcases the attributes of the two South Australian wine regions.
