This is a family owned winery established in 1858 and operated by the legendary Bill Chambers and his son Stephen, the 6th generation of this family to make wine at Rosewood. Rosewood's gnarled old low-yielding vines, many of which are almost 90 years old, yield fruit brimming with highly concentrated flavours for their world renowned Muscat, Tokay and Port styles.

Now celebrating 150 years since settling in Rutherglen, the family still operates from the original site. The laconic Bill Chambers OAM is often to be found at the cellar door over the weekends but it is his son Stephen who now makes the wine. Stephen took over the winemaking function in 2001 and is Rosewood's 6th generation.

The non-irrigated vines, many of which are over eighty years old, produce low yields with wonderful concentrated flavours.
