For over three decades, the Chalmers family has been at the forefront of Australian viticulture, meticulously fine-tuning their sustainable, warm-climate practices. Their dedication extends beyond their own vineyards, as they have consistently been a leader in the importation and propagation of climate-apt Italian varieties. This pioneering spirit has profoundly influenced the landscape of Australian wine.
Through an ongoing commitment to endlessly evolving nursery, vineyard, and winemaking trials, Chalmers has truly changed the face of Australian wine. Their relentless pursuit of innovation has resulted in a deeper understanding of which grape varieties thrive in Australia’s diverse climates. The various brands operating under the Chalmers umbrella represent the rich fruits of these labors, showcasing wines crafted with a gentle hand and an ever-inquisitive mission to create unique expressions of ancient grapes, beautifully reflective of their new Australian homes.
When you’re planning your unforgettable Mildura getaway, perhaps immersing yourself in a tranquil Murray River experience from the comfortable deck of the River Dream Boatel, a visit to Chalmers Wines offers a unique and insightful dimension. They are open to the public on Monday and Friday from 10 AM to 3 PM, or available via prior appointment, so it’s a good idea to book ahead of time if you’re visiting outside these hours or with a larger group.
