Victoria 
The Pfeiffer winery sits on a high embankment above a sweeping bend in Sunday Creek in Rutherglen, Northern Victoria. The winery was built in 1895 by Monsieur Joseph Gassies and purchased by Chris and Robyn Pfeiffer in 1984.
Chris was formerly Chief Fortified Winemaker at Lindeman's and has built an international reputation as both a still wine and fortified winemaker and judge. He is currently Chairman of Judges for the prestigious Royal Melbourne Wine Show and for the Rutherglen Wine Show (Australia's longest running wine show).
Pfeiffer Winery is situated in one of Australia's oldest wine regions; the Rutherglen, a distinctive viticultural region with a continuous family winemaking history of over 140 years. Rutherglen's extended vintage, the longest in Australia, provides options for wines of varying, but distinctive regional character. Vintage often begins in January and continues through to early May.
Rutherglen experiences a continental climate, offering a wide range of temperature variation between the warmest and coldest months as well as in the daily temperature range. This means that throughout vintage, Rutherglen experiences warm, sunny days and very cool, clear nights. This is one of the key factors in slowing the ripening processes and providing such high quality fruit. Rutherglen has a Heat Degree Days Index of 1770 and is 36South.
Chris and Jennifer focus on growing the best possible fruit and making approachable wines with a great balance.
