Sandalford has made wines for over 150 years,
changing their wines and vinification in many ways. Winemaking however has been around for thousands of years
so in some sense little has changed!
Since
the early 1990's Sandalford Wines returned to family ownership
with Peter and Debra Prendiville at the helm. Their
significant changes to the winery over the past ten years reflect
modern practices, yet maintain the tradition and mystique behind
the winemaking process. For example, whilst Sandalford use the latest equipment for processing
fruit during vintage, Sandalford maintains small batch processing
of all fruit and use only the top quality French and American
small Oak barrels.
Today the winery oversees two prestigious vineyards, one in the famed Wilyabrup region of Margaret River and the other in the Swan Valley.
Sandalford Wines now essentially produce three ranges of wine, the
entry point Element range, the ever classic premium Sandalford range
and the super premium Prendiville Reserve. All wines are made by the same exacting standards and attention to detail.
