The Saltings Estate is a small boutique family owned vineyard which produces classical style wines that express the qualities of our terroir; that is our soils, microclimate, biodynamic management and care of the vineyard. Our vineyard of three and a half acres is planted with Syrah, Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc grapes. Manual shoot and fruit thinning, leaf-plucking and harvesting is standard practice to ensure consistently low yields and better fruit quality. A natural balance is achieved on the property with plantings of olive and fruit trees, native bush and exotic plants and trees.
