Beresford Wines Cellar Door and Tasting Pavilion
Beresford Estates approached the Alexander Brown to create a tasting pavilion that celebrated and showcased their premium wines. ABA created a building that is functional yet interesting, simple yet interactive.
Exploring the juxtaposition of earthiness and sophistication in wine-making using raw, sustainable natural materials to create an elegant and refined building. Oversized timber clad sliding screens provide a sleek facade while never obscuring the views of the surrounding vineyards, and the connection to the site.
The Vineyard
The 28 hectare vineyard was first planted in the 1960s, according to Beresford Wines. It is located at the height of one of McLaren Vale’s most elevated sites in the cool Blewitt Springs sub-region. The altitude is around 130 meters above sea level.
Grown in ancient sandy soils, the deep sand above the clay sub-soils allow the vines to be dry-grown with minimal or no irrigation, creating wines of intense flavours & soft mouth filling tannins.
This Australian vineyard is a true representation of McLaren Vale’s most successful wine-grape varieties – fifty year old gnarly old bush vine Grenache, balanced Shiraz & Cabernet Sauvignon and leading clones of Chardonnay. The building includes a wrought iron wine cellar door.
