Vineyard Info
Stella Bella’s five small distinctive vineyards are located throughout southern Margaret River, an area of our region chosen for its cool climate and ability to produce elegant, aromatic and medium bodied wines with personality and precision.
• Peak summer & low winter temperatures are moderated by extra cloud cover & ocean winds. Resulting in a longer cooler ripening period.
• Higher natural acidity with a pleasing mineral character.
• Tannin ripeness in the seeds & skins & the ability to maintain delicate & elegant flavours.
• Medium bodied, feminine wines with more perfume & distinctive varietal complexities & structure.
Stella Bella wines are the heart and soul of our winery and southern Margaret River. A vibrant range of classic Margaret River varietals that are abundant with aromas and flavors of flowers and fruits. Made to reflect the finesse and elegance of our southern Margaret River vineyards.
