Tasting Experiences
Chalk hill tasting
Explore award-winning wines from Chalk Hill and Small Batch Release range.
$20 Per Person | Maximum 10 Guests | 45 Minutes
Wines in the Chalk Hill range are premium quality that can be enjoyed by themselves or will compliment foods. The Small Batch Release (SBR) wines are our winemaking playground, much like a test-kitchen where we can experiment with smaller ferments and exciting grape varieties.
Premium Alpha Crucis tasting
Experience the brightest stars in our vineyard.
Private Appointments Only.
Alpha Crucis wines reflect a sense of place and our efforts in the vineyard and winery. We only release Alpha Crucis wines in years that satisfy our uncompromising principles of quality and varietal integrity. Premium Alpha Crucis Tastings are available exclusively through private appointments.
Would you like to join us for a glass of wine instead of a tasting flight? Make a table reservation here.
Chalk Hill Wine Club Members receive complimentary tastings when booking using the email address associated with your membership.
