The Beverford range by Buller Wines pays homage to the historic Beverford winery established in 1951, a pivotal expansion that allowed the Buller family to diversify beyond their famous Rutherglen fortifieds. Sourced from the sun-drenched vineyards of the Swan Hill region in Victoria, along the Murray River, this Chardonnay captures the generous, fruit-forward character of the region. The winemaking focuses on preserving the vibrant primary fruit, utilizing cool fermentation in stainless steel with minimal oak influence to highlight bright stone fruit, peach, and citrus notes. It represents a classic, approachable Australian style that bridges the winery's rich century-long heritage with modern, refreshing everyday drinking.

Established in 1921 by Reginald Langdon Buller, Buller Wines is a historic Australian winery located in the Rutherglen and Swan Hill regions of Victoria. Over a century of winemaking has cemented their reputation, particularly for world-class fortified wines like their Fine Old Muscat and Tokay, which are aged in historic solera systems. The estate expanded in 1951 with the establishment of the Beverford winery, allowing them to produce a diverse portfolio of premium still wines, including robust Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and elegant Chardonnay. Today, Buller Wines continues to honor its heritage by blending traditional basket-pressing and open-fermenter techniques with modern innovation to showcase the unique terroir of Victoria.
