Keith Tulloch

New South Wales  

HISTORY
Keith Tulloch is a fourth generation Hunter Valley winemaker. The Hunter Valley is Australia's oldest wine producing region, dating back to 1825.

In 1997 Keith began his own company and produces wines focusing on the traditional Hunter Valley varieties - Semillon and Shiraz, and more recently Viognier and Cabernet Sauvignon, sourcing grapes from only the best Hunter Valley vineyard sites. For Keith the greatest reward has been found making his own wines with a unique stamp of personality, power and integrity.

Australian Writer James Halliday says of Keith Tulloch Wines: "I cannot remember being more impressed with an initial release of wines than those under the Keith Tulloch label. The only problem is their small scale of production, like that of Geoffrey Grosset in his early days. There is the same almost obsessive attention to detail, the same ascetic intellectual approach, the same refusal to accept anything but the best."

THE REGION
The Lower Hunter Valley in New South Wales, three hours drive north of Sydney, is arguably Australia's best-known wine region. The region enjoys a warm climate with cooling afternoon sea breezes being the savior for winemaking. The Hunter Valley is renowned for producing 'classic' Chardonnay, Shiraz and Semillon wines which have a great capacity for aging. The region now boasts many boutique wineries catering to the many tourists and Sydney wine lovers who venture north to this picturesque area.

WINE AND WINEMAKING
These wines are hand-made with meticulous care, and epitomize the best qualities of Hunter Valley wine. All Keith's wines have the style, balance, structure and integrity necessary for graceful maturation and cellaring. Winery production is very limited, with annual production of only 9000 cases.
