Berton Vineyards was founded in 1996 by Bob Berton, previously the winemaker at DeBortoli and Miranda. This enthusiastic enterprise has expanded with the acquisition of a modern winery at Yenda in the heart of the Riverina, NSW.
Situated in the High Eden, a cool climate sub region located on the ridge dividing the Eden and Barossa Valleys, the altitude provides ideal conditions to grow high quality expressive fruit.
Berton Vineyards:
Silkwood is a range of wines developed for quality, structure and approachability, designed to be both smooth and generous on the palate.
Silkwood Semillon Chardonnay is full of wonderful aromas of fresh passion fruit well integrated with a lovely lime citrus palate that goes on forever.
Pinot Grigio Rosé has an attractive pink blush and delicate aromas of rosehip. The palate shows fresh flavours of strawberries, and pomegranates with some sweetness.
Silkwood Shiraz Cabernet is full of vibrant berries underlaid with mocha and spice notes. Fruit driven with a touch of oak and a full rich finish.
Silkwood Merlot offers ripe berry characters with strong blackberry notes. This is a traditional style of Merlot; fruity, soft in texture with a little spice on the palate.
Broken Barrel Hill is a new range of wines which are sourced from the Riverina region. Vinification is over-seen by top winemaker James Ceccato at Berton. All three wines are wonderfully expressive examples of their grape varietals with lifted aromas and good balanced fruit.
Waterstone Bridge is a range of wines of great intensity, reflecting the 'alpine' climatic influences in the vineyards. The altitude, cool breezes and abundant irrigation from snow melt allow the grapes to retain natural acids and sugar with vibrant, lifted fruit flavours.
