Paralian Wines
Charlie Seppelt and Skye Salter were fresh-faced, aspiring young winemakers tallying up the vintage experiences when they met in 2008 at Hardy’s Tintara in McLaren Vale. A connection was formed over long nightshifts, sneaky midnight coffees and love of all things wine.

Many vintages together followed both in Australia and abroad, but the pull of McLaren Vale was too great and they gave up the nomadic vintage life to put down some roots.

They found their home in Port Willunga, a seaside town in the McLaren Vale wine region, where the afternoons are long, and the glasses full.
After a collective 46 vintages all over the world it was finally time to make a little wine for themselves and their long-awaited project Paralian Wines was born.

Choosing specific sites for each variety lead them to the northern reaches of McLaren Vale where old inland seas once were, now leaving beach like pockets where their chosen red varieties, Grenache and Shiraz thrive.

Site and vintage expression is their fundamental belief, working with growers to ensure quality and ideal ripeness is met with balance and varietal expression in mind. To do more, is to do less.
