New Wave Varieties

Rutherglen’s new wave of exciting varieties and styles are influenced by the continental climate of the European wine regions of the Iberian peninsula, namely Spain, Portugal and France.

Our New Wave Varieties

Rutherglen’s growers and winemakers are unafraid of change, exploring alternative grape varieties, trialing different winemaking techniques and developing new wine styles.

Creative young makers work alongside those with decades of experience to create wines that are versatile, often brave, and deliver a joyful sense of discovery. It’s this sense of innovation, of exploration and pushing the boundaries that is driving the new wave of Rutherglen.
