Vineyards

"....Come together to create the experience that is Padthaway, gateway to the Limestone Coast..."

The plains of Padthaway produce wines of reliable quality and style. Although famously known as 'Chardonnay country', the region produces consistently award winning wines of all varieties.

The gently undulating country of Padthaway is neighbour to the famous Coonawarra. It has climatic similarities and a good slice of terra rossa, the famed soil of the Limestone Coast. The success of Coonawarra led viticulturalists to seek out similar ground. Back in 1944 the CSIRO had recommended the region for horticulture due to its rich soil and underground water supply. The climate is Mediterranean with coastal influences. This region is the preserve of the large wine companies. Seppelt first established vineyards in the region followed by Lindemans, then Hardys (in 1968) and thence Wynns to follow suit. The Padthaway vineyards  produce fruit for red and white table wine and sparkling wine for premium labels.
