Background: Delatite is a genuine Cool Climate winery based near the rural town of Mansfield at the southern foot of Mount Buller and the Victorian Alps. Robert and Vivienne Ritchie planted the first vines at Delatite in 1968, built the winery in 1982, and their daughter Rosalind was the winemaker from 1982 until her retirement in 2005.
In late 2007 Robert and Vivienne’s son David purchased the winery from his parents and continues the family tradition. He’s always understood that this site is special and all of Delatite’s wines truly are a product of the terroir of the vineyard.
Delatite started following Rudolf Steiner’s teachings on biodynamic agriculture back in 2001 and have now been using his methods across all the estate vineyards since 2005.
