What we do

We source fruit from four regions of South Australia, bottle on the Gold Coast under one quality protocol, and ship at retail scale to international markets. Eight wines, one label, no cross-regional blending. The Shiraz tastes like McLaren Vale because it is McLaren Vale. The Riesling tastes like Clare because it is Clare. That's the brief.

Four Regions, One State

South
Australia.

South Australia produces about half of Australia's wine and roughly 80% of its premium fruit. Our four regions sit within a ninety-minute drive of Adelaide. They share a state and almost nothing else – different soils, different climates, different varieties they're known for.

Barossa
Valley

Where Australian Shiraz was born.

70 km north-east of Adelaide. Settled by Silesian immigrants in the 1840s. The Shiraz vineyards we source from include plantings from 1843 – classified under the Barossa Old Vine Charter as Ancestor Vines, among the oldest continuously producing wine vines on earth. South Australia's quarantine kept phylloxera out, so these vines have survived where almost every other major wine region lost them.

McLaren
Vale

Where the Southern Ocean reaches the vine.

On the Fleurieu Peninsula, forty-five minutes south of Adelaide. The Gulf St Vincent and the Southern Ocean push cool air inland, which softens the tannin in the reds, brightens the fruit, and slows the ripening enough to keep alcohol in check. Old-vine Grenache and Shiraz are the regional strength.

Adelaide
Hills

Australia's coolest-climate whites.

200 to 600 metres above sea level in the hills east of Adelaide. Among the coolest viticultural zones in the country. The fruit holds acid into harvest – exactly what white wine needs. This is where our white portfolio and the base wine for our sparkling come from.

Clare
Valley

Riesling country, and the structured reds that come with it.

130 km north of Adelaide, sitting high. Hot days and cold nights – a thirty-degree swing inside twenty-four hours is normal here. That diurnal range builds backbone into the grapes and longevity into the wine. Internationally recognised for Riesling. Equally for structured Shiraz and Cabernet that age well.

Four regions, ninety minutes apart.

All four regions sit within a ninety-minute drive of Adelaide. Each has its own soil, climate, and varietal signature.

Heritage

Older than most
countries.

The Barossa vineyards we source from include plantings from 1843 – classified under the Barossa Old Vine Charter as Ancestor Vines, among the oldest continuously producing wine vines on earth. South Australia has been phylloxera-free since state quarantine was established in 1899. Genetic lines lost in almost every other major wine region have been preserved here, untouched, for nearly two centuries.

Eight
wines.

Three reds, three whites, a Shiraz-based dry rosé, and sparkling in three styles. Each wine comes from the region that does that variety best. Vinified, bottled, and shipped under one quality standard.
