Ever since 6th generation winemaker Chris Killeen fell in love with Portuguese Port, Stanton & Killeen have been pioneering the use of Portuguese varieties in Rutherglen, Victoria. With the winery being family-run for over 150 years, their aim of keeping the winery running for another 150 years is at the forefront of their minds. Therefore, with sustainable practices as a priority, they decided to plant the white Portuguese variety Arinto as it is well suited to Rutherglen's warm and dry climate. The resulting wine is award-winning! Packed with vibrant fruit character, this is a must-try for anyone who loves a zesty white.

"The 2022 Vintage is the fifth release of Arinto for Stanton & Killeen. We planted three Portuguese white varieties (Alvarinho, Arinto & Antao Vaz) in 2015 to complement our existing red Portuguese varieties, create diversity in our white portfolio and, most importantly, to plant vines well-adapted to a warm and dry climate. The success of these varieties is a testament to the vision of Natasha Killeen, 7th generation vigneron and General Manager at Stanton & Killeen." - Adriaan Foot, Winemaker.
