Our Review
Keith and Alison Hentschke purchased Hentley Farm in 1997, as a mixed farming property with an old vineyard. Keith studied agricultural science at Roseworthy, later adding an MBA. During the '90s he had a senior production role with Orlando, before moving on to manage Fabal, one of Australia’s largest vineyard management companies. Establishing a great vineyard like Hentley Farm required all of his knowledge. A total of 38.2ha were planted between ’99 and '05. In ’04 an adjoining 6.5ha vineyard, christened Clos Otto, was acquired. Shiraz dominates the plantings, with 32.5ha. Situated on the banks of Greenock Creek, the vineyard has red clay loam soils overlaying shattered limestone, lightly rocked slopes and little topsoil. Exports to the US and other major markets. -JAMES HALLIDAY
