Denton’s Cabernet vines are located on the warm, north-western slope, near the top of the Denton View Hill. This is the first Denton Cabernet to be made since 2011, so it’s a real treat.

The fruit was picked at the end of March, wild fermented and pressed to three puncheons (one of which was new). It rested there until bottling (without fining or filtration) in November 2022.

About Denton Wines

Welcome to John and Simon Denton’s Vineyard. Our vineyard, ‘View Hill’, is an isolated hill in the middle of the Yarra Valley on the north side of the Yarra River and has a great aspect for grape growing and wonderful views of the whole valley.

This unique terroir was formed 370 million years ago in the late Devonian age from an active volcano that left behind a ‘granite’ plug. This granitic sandy soil over massive granite boulders is the key element of our special site.

Set on 60 hectares of land (150 acres) the vineyard covers 32 hectares (80 acres) planted in three stages between 1997 and 2004. We have been growing grapes here since 1997 and making wine since 2006.

Denton wine aims to make elegant, varietal and site specific wines that are delicious and enjoyable.

Fine Wine Cellars

On the one hand, our role as a merchant of all things wine & spirits could not be simpler. We aim to source the most delicious, the most authentic, and the highest quality products possible from Australia and around the world in order to offer them to our clients. We live or die by how well we perform this task. Of course things are rarely as simple or as easy as they seem. Hunting for wines & spirits is no different. Apart from the months spent travelling, countless days and evenings spent tasting and the outrageous wine expenditure in the name of ‘research’, sourcing quality wine and spirits requires expertise and experience. Understanding the potential of a producer and their products is much more than just a slurp and a spit.
