Daniel Chaffey Hartwig + Theo Engela + Huon Fechner
Born in the Barossa's Eden Valley of German heritage, Daniel Chaffey Hartwig felt a natural pull to winemaking. As a child, the Barossa’s back blocks were his adventure playground. School holidays were spent picking grapes before working the tasting bench at Penfolds, folllowed by a career as a wine broker and creative consultant. Chaffey Bros represents the fruition of a long dream to ply his family's trade in his beloved Barossa.
Brother in-law, Theo Engela, fled a career as a government economist to join Chaffey Bros to work on "the business-side-of-things" but falling into the winemaking vats, so to speak, before too long. Theo loves the opportunity wine gives to pull multiple passions into one creative endeavour.
