A Family Tradition Since 1858

Founded in 1858 by William Chambers and his son Philip, Chambers Rosewood Winery exemplifies a deep commitment to winemaking. Today, the sixth generation of the Chambers family continues to uphold this legacy. Stephen Chambers, the current owner, along with his father Bill, manages the winery with the same passion and dedication as their ancestors. They skillfully blend time-honored methods with contemporary techniques to create wines that reflect the estate's rich heritage.

Century-Old Grapevines and Diverse Varietals

At Chambers Rosewood, Stephen handpicks grapes from century-old vines, which are known for their concentrated flavors and aromas. The winery primarily cultivates Muscat and Muscadelle, but also grows a variety of other grapes, including Palomino, Roussanne, Riesling, Traminer, and Shiraz. Unique to the estate is the Gouais grape, a parent of Chardonnay, alongside high-quality Tempranillo, Grenache, Mondeuse, and Cinsault, allowing for a diverse range of wine styles.

The wine cellar at Chambers Rosewood showcases an impressive collection of red, white, and fortified wines, as well as premium rosé and dessert wines produced annually. The winery employs large tanks and wooden barrels for aging and refining its exceptional wines, ensuring a quality experience for wine enthusiasts.

Absolutely the best cellar door experience we've had. Legendary, not to mention their rare muscat is literally best example in the world. Too many awards, just a few mentions: 3 vinos inducted to the Bordeaux wine Museum in France, multiple James Halliday 100 point scores (rare as hens teeth in the wine world) and all round a really fun, personal experience learning the centuries of history about Australia's most outstanding rare dessert specimens ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ @melbourne.food.collective #melbournefoodcollective #melbournefoodreviews #visitvictoria #visitnsw #rutherglen

Called in for a wine tasting when staying in town. Served by Vaneta and Sumi (unsure spelling :) ) We had a great time. Both ladies were very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. Tastings were generous and the setting comfortable. Kids (8&13) were well looked after, outside there were lawn games, Charlie the cockatoo, zooper doopers and cordial tastings. Enjoyed our experience and would recommend for a laid back easy wine tasting. Also, our 2 pups were very welcome x

I had likley one of the best experiences at Chambers Winery! I booked for an early tasting as they opened. I love older, more rustic looking wineries, and this is just thst with all of the wines made on-site. It was a slow day, and the lovely staff took me for a tour of everything from the fruit picking to the maturation chambers! All while sampling some of the best muscat, and wines around. Could not have had a more lovely time. If you are in the area go visit them!
