Mitchelton
Since buying the property and brand in 2011, the Ryan family has developed Mitchelton into one of the signature destinations in Australian wine, featuring a brilliantly appointed boutique hotel and day spa. The property also hosts The Muse restaurant and the Mitchelton Gallery of Aboriginal Art (Australia's largest) and its remarkable contemporary collection. Currently undergoing a major renovation in its extensive vineyard, Mitchelton is steadily moving towards a focus on white and red varieties from the Rhone Valley in France - such as shiraz, grenache, mourvedre, marsanne and roussanne - all the while retaining and developing what is perhaps its most consistent wine over the decades, the Blackwood Park Riesling.
