Chalou Wines

Bud to bottle winery in Orange NSW

Nestled in the heart of the Orange region on Wiradjuri Country, our award-winning winery is one of the best wineries in the region, leading the way with an authentic bud-to-bottle experience.

Owners and vignerons, Nadja and Steve, have a strong connection to the land and a genuine love for viticulture.

Their love for the craft shines through in every bottle of wine, capturing the ever-changing essence of the vineyard.

At ChaLou Wines, we have three delicious labels for you to explore and buy: ChaLou EstateThe Somm & The Winemaker, and Dreaded Friend. Each wine tells its own unique story – hint, it’s all to do with the grapes we grow.

Our mission is simple: to create wines that express a true sense of time and place. We love what we do and can’t wait to share it with you.

– Nadja + Steve

“Day in the life”

 

On March 14th 2025, we captured a glimpse into the rhythm of vintage at ChaLou Wines, filming a “day in the life” on our vineyard. At the heart of what we do is connection—we’re deeply passionate about sharing our craft and the story behind every wine bottle.
