Testimonials
Finn Carter
Fantastic experience. Good selection of wines to taste and quality bottles at very reasonable prices. Nadja is enthusiastic and passionate about her craft, and is a knowledgeable and warm host with some great stories about her experience in wine across Australia and the world. Thanks so much for the tips for our Bordeaux trip - we will be back to tell you all about it!
Jacinta Cubis
What a wonderful tasting at ChaLou. We learned heaps from Nadja as we enjoyed the variety of wines available from this boutique vineyard. It punches above its weight. Highly recommend booking for a tasting. Get in before they win any more awards, otherwise you'll have to go on a waiting list.
Charlotte Cryer
ChaLou wines are simply amazing! I was first introduced to this beautiful winery last year at Pinot Palooza and have been addicted to their wines since. In particular, their Pinot Noir is delicious. Definitely recommend to anyone.
Bill Beedie
We've been looking forward to tasting the current release of ChaLou wines with Steve and Nadja, who as always are wonderful hosts. A great tasting of the current vintage, loved it, these wines really do showcase the very best of Orange and the region.
Leeann Whitehair
A beautiful tasting room featuring a fabulous range of wines from the Orange wine region. Steve and Nadja, two young winemakers were extremely generous with their time and explanations of their wines. Do yourself a favour and become a member, you won’t regret it. Highly recommended.

The ChaLou Bud-to-bottle tour was an exceptional experience - a truly personal peek behind the curtain with Nadja, Steve (and if you're lucky, Barnacles the pup and their adorable girls) - going deep into their philosophy, methodology and practice of winemaking.
Jamie Nolife
Such a beautiful afternoon in a gorgeous location with Steve (and a bit of Nadja). A family business where passion and skill result in some amazing wine - and in us buying 4 cases there and then! A must visit when in Orange.
