Description
Charnwood Estate is located in the Mudgee wine region, on a historic property just 5 minutes from the centre of Mudgee and nestled at the foot of the hills in the delightful Cudgegong Valley.
Charnwood Estate in Mudgee is a smmall player kicking big goals with its shiraz and merlot.
As small and boutique as wineries come, Charnwood demanded everyone’s attention when its 2009 Charlie’s Row Merlot won against some higher profile wineries in the 2011 Winewise Championship.
Charnwood specialises in red wines and are particularly proud of the Shiraz which keeps going from strength to strength.
