Grape Varieties

Grape Varieties

Red grape varieties represent 75% of all grapes grown in the region, with the majority of Mount Benson planted to cabernet sauvignon, but also includes substantial plantings of shiraz, merlot, pinot noir, cabernet franc and petit verdot. White varieties consist of chardonnay and sauvignon blanc, as well as pinot gris, riesling, semillon, verdelho and viognier. The region although settled for its propensity to grow excellent red in its terra rossa soils, is now home to nationally acclaimed sauvignon blanc and chardonnay.
