Brothers-in-law Daniel Chaffey Hartwig and Theo Engela are the latest generations of the Chaffey family to ply their vinous trade in Australia. Their hand-made, minimal intervention wines come from small parcels of low-yielding vineyards spread throughout the Barossa and Eden Valleys. Drawing on true old vines and complex soils they see themselves as a part perfumer - discovering delicate aromatics; part historian - preserving the purity of pristine fruit and part mad scientist - revelling in the art of small batch blending.
