Jeanneret Wines was established in 1992 by the Jeanneret family. A passion for making wines purely for their own enjoyment organically expanded into a business and the Jeanneret cellar door was opened in October 1994.
Headed up by self-taught Winemaker, Ben Jeanneret, their ethos is to produce generous wines full of flavour to be enjoyed amongst friends. Ben has perfected the art and is regarded as one of the leading winemakers of Clare Valley. Ben was named one of the “Ten Dark Horses” in 2015 by James Halliday and continues to produce premium wines earning Jeanneret the title of a Five Star Winery.
Jeanneret have two vineyards located in the Armagh Valley of north-western Clare, run with an organic philosophy to maintain the integrity of the vines.
For more than two decades, their 60 acres of low yielding and well-manicured vines have been producing Shiraz, Cabernet and Malbec. Beneath these vines is a combination of clay and sandy loam soils.
