Margan Family Winegrowers Beltree Cellar Door

Great wine is made from great vineyards, and great vineyards take thought and careful planning. The Margan Family believe that the right varieties need to be planted in the right regions and in the right soils with the vineyard having an appropriate aspect.

Margan Wines are fortunate to have over 300 acres of some of the best vineyards in the Hunter Valley. Most of the vines were planted in the early 1970s by Lindemans. These rejuvenated vineyards, now known as Timbervines, are dryland planted thirty-five year old low-yielding vines, growing in the rich red volcanic clay deposits of the Fordwich Sill.

The vineyards are hand pruned, hand worked and much prized. From these they produce intensely flavoured wines that are true to their variety and their region. These great old vines give consistency in flavour and structure which is the hallmark the Margan wine style.
