Taltarni Vineyard - Victoria's Pyrenees Wine Region At a latitude of 37˚C S, Victoria's Pyrenees wine region lies in a perfect climatic band for growing grapes in the Southern hemisphere. Most of Taltarni's vineyards are at 200-400m above sea level and annual rainfall of 600mm is concentrated in winter and early spring months. Harvest generally occurs March/April.
The poor, fragile soils of the Pyrenees, concentrating fruit flavours, are a mix of red clay, quartz and sandy loam over deeper sandstone and shale subsoils. Warm days and cool nights mean Taltarni’s Pyrenees vineyards has rare climatic conditions to enable the production of robust reds; notably Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz, fresh whites and crisp sparkling whites within the location.
