De Salis Wines is located on the slopes of Mt Canobolas, in the high altitude, cool climate Wine Region of Orange. At an elevation of 1050m, De Salis is one of Australias highest altitude wineries, which contributes to the character of the wines they produce.
Owned by the Svenson family, De Salis saw Mitch Svenson take over as head winemaker from his father Charlie in 2020. The winery produces handcrafted, minimal intervention, premium French varietal wines including Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Franc.
The Cellar Door at De Salis is housed in an old apple picking shed, featuring an eclectic vibe with machinery typical of a working winery. Tastings are usually held on the deck, offering beautiful sweeping views over the vineyard and across the Orange wine region.
Run by the family, you’ll find Loretta, Ben, Mitch, and Charlie pouring wines and guiding you through an intimate and informative tasting. This experience is perfect for those keen to learn more about the unique qualities of high-altitude wines.
