James Halliday对该酒庄的评分：★★★★★

​

今天的米其尔顿酒庄自1969年成立至今已是43年，在澳大利亚葡萄酒行业的顶峰，酿酒师Colin Preece’s坚决要在东南澳寻找和建立出 “可以种植最好、最优质葡萄的地方”。在这过去的40年，米其尔顿酒庄最专注的莫过于对其产地以及位于维多利亚重要的葡萄园所作出的贡献。致力于采用最好的葡萄品种酿造出具有产区特色的葡萄酒。葡萄品种以设拉子以及雷司令尤为出色。

米其尔顿塔是该酒庄的标志由墨尔本一位名叫Ted Ashton的建筑师在1973年所建造，以360度全观景整个葡萄酒园和Goulburn河。米其尔顿酒庄以它作为酒庄的logo强烈代表着该酒庄，同时也是当地的一个关键的旅游景点。

Today, Mitchelton winery celebrates 43 years since its establishment in 1969, the culmination of Australian wine industry stalwart and founding winemaker Colin Preece’s quest to “find the best site for premium wine grape growing anywhere in south eastern Australia.” The past four decades for Mitchelton have been about focused commitment to coaxing the most from its estate and key Central Victorian vineyards and working with the best suited varietals – especially Shiraz and Riesling – to make wines expressive of the region.

The iconic Mitchelton tower has panoramic 360˚ views of the vineyard and Goulburn River. The tower was designed by Melbourne Architect Ted Ashton and the construction completed in 1973. It remains a strong identifiable symbol of Mitchelton featuring on its logo as well as being a key attraction for tourism.
