Hiddenfire Wines is a family owned winery, based in McLaren Vale. The winery was established by winemaker Charles Whish and his wife Lynn. They produce small volume, single batch wines from their own vineyards.
Charles has an extensive career spanning five decades in the wine industry, with a long list of winemaking awards to his name – including the coveted Jimmy Watson trophy – Charles’ passion for wine began within the canopies of his father’s vineyards in Inverell, NSW, where he developed a love of grape growing and winemaking.
During his career he was a senior winemaker with Rosemount Estate and Treasury Wine Estates, both prominent multinational wine companies, before joining Serafino Wines in McLaren Vale. Over this period he was given the scope to hone his craft and focus on creating wines of distinct regional character and international acclaim.
Hiddenfire Wines brings Charles’ passion full-circle – fulfilling a desire to create his own extraordinary small batch wines that show unique personality and genuinely represent the vineyards from which they originate.
The natural environment has always been important to Lynn, who oversees the viticulture side of the winery and the management of the Hiddenfire vineyards. Lynn is also an artist and the Hiddenfire labels feature her artworks.
In addition, the second generation are actively involved in the Hiddenfire winery with daughters Emily and Katie overseeing winery operations with their partners, Reg and James.
