Gestalt Wines was born in 2012 from a single wine made from a stunning Grenache vineyard in Williamstown, South Australia. Now based in the Adelaide Hills, the label has grown organically each year in the search for similar quality vines from the surrounding Adelaide Hills, Clare Valley and Barossa Valley wine regions. Our philosophy is based on how to most gently press premium grapes from vineyards using organic practices. When the fruits of this labour get to the winery in pristine condition, most of the work is already done. To retain the freshness and intensity which rewards this approach, we use natural ferments with minimal intervention all the way to bottling.
Anderson Hill is situated in Lenswood, at an altitude of 1942 feet above sea level.
Planted in 1994 by Ben Anderson, the vineyard is family owned and is one of the coolest and highest sites in South Australia. Winemakers, Ben Anderson and Turon White have had many years of experience crafting elegant wines that capture the unique characteristics of this vineyard.
Rubaiyat (pronounced Roo-by-at)
Jackson Farrow created Rubaiyat Wines as an ode to the 12th century Persian poet Omar Khayyam, who is renowned for his work Rubaiyat. It was first translated into English in the late 19th Century by Edward Fitzgerald and has been part of the literary canon ever since, going through numerous translations by many other linguists (but none quite reaching the heights of the original). The poem muses on many topics – love, life and its transience, free will, the stars and the heavens - but one thread that pops up throughout is the love of wine and the pleasure it brings. This expression of love and balance is conveyed in Jackson’s wine.
John Vickery is the acknowledged old master of Riesling in Australia, with an illustrious career spanning nearly sixty years, culminating in the extraordinary awards tally of more than fifty Trophies and over four hundred Gold Medals. The Vickery label is more then just a legacy for John’s stellar career and countless awards; it is the preservation of his winemaking methods, that will be passed on for generations to come for the benefit of all lovers of classic Australian Riesling.
John and Faye Parker established Parker Coonawarra Estate in 1985 after a career-long interest in the region. The winery’s first release of the 1988 vintage of First Growth was met with outstanding success, winning the Penfold Hyland Trophy in Perth.
It was also judged the 6th highest rated Bordeaux-Style in the 1991 International Wine Challenge in London. This was the first step in establishing Parker Coonawarra Estate’s reputation for producing wines of outstanding quality and longevity. Five Star Halliday Rated Winery, Langton’s Classified 2015 Terra Rossa Cab: “There is more finesse to the Parker wines of late. This beauty right up there with its atypical, pleasing aromas of blackberry and boysenberries, the sprinkle of spice, freshly rolled tobacco, dried mint and earth. The palate is very neatly contained, textured tannins, balanced and long finish” 95 points Halliday Wine Companion 2016 95 Block ‘...A classy, full-bodied Bordeaux blend, petit verdot filling in any holes in the profile of the cabernet, resulting in a wine that won’t take a backward step in the lifetime of most who buy it.’ 96 points – James Halliday

Round Two was a dream of a couple of mates. Well known in their own fields this was an
venture of personal satisfaction and as such they called themselves The Mute Vintners – a quiet endeavour aiming at making good quality, single vineyard Barossa wines that reach the consumers at the right price. In 1990 a site was selected in the foothills of Angaston, just below Eden Valley, it suited what the guys were looking for perfectly and the vineyard was planted. A gentle western aspect with east west row orientation to take full advantage of the long sunny Barossa afternoons. Good quality, good value – Grown, made and bottled by Warwick Murray, Todd Riethmuller and Kym Teusner.
It began in 2001 when Kym was a party to a conversation between fifth generation grape growing brothers Steve and Leon Riebke, their 90 year old Grenache vineyard was facing destruction due to low grape prices on offer by the big guns. From there Kym Teusner and Michael Page hatched a plan, scratched together some money, saved the vineyard and the Teusner winery was born with the first release of Joshua in 2002.
Ricca Terra Vintners is a unique and truly special cluster of Australian vineyards. The vision of founders Ashley & Holly Ratcliff in 2003 was to identify and nurture grape varieties that suited a Mediterranean climate. Today Ricca Terra Vintners is one of the leading producers of alternative wine grape varieties in Australia.
Ricca Terra Vintners has established the mantra to blend grape varieties in the vineyard rather than in the winery... and make wines of interest with stories to tell.

Late 1990’s when winemaker Ben Glaetzer became excited about the outstanding quality of fruit being grown in some of South Australia’s lesser-known regions, in particular Langhorne Creek. Together with industry veterans, Scott Collett, Grant Tilbrook and more recently Nick Keukenmeester, they grew Heartland into an award-winning winery. Today Heartland sources all of its fruit exclusively from Langhorne Creek.
After growing super premium fruit in the Adelaide Hills for over a decade and having watched so many amazing parcels of fruit turn into trophy winning wines, we decided it was our time to challenge the wine world and choose our own destiny with our own wine. Vella Wines is based on precision viticulture and the best wine making techniques to make a wine that friends and family will enjoy…… The focus on these amazing wines is to over deliver on fruit quality at a price point that anyone can afford.
Established in 2018, Marys Myth is an up and coming Multi- Region winery based in the Adelaide Hills.

Mary’s Myth was then es- tablished, the name coming from the discovery that all had grandmothers named Mary.

Lindsay was previously a physician and retired entirely from medicine in 2001 to realise his
dream of handcrafting the wine from beginning to end – growing and caring for the vines
(which he has done since 1990 when the Uley property was acquired), and since 2001,
taking the grapes through the process of specialised winemaking. Lindsay’s philosophy
is that the vineyard is all important in the production of top quality wines and his aim is to
produce each year the finest wine from the finest grapes that the season and meticulous
vineyard care can provide.
The Still co story: Still to glass is our driving philosophy and we are passionate about sourcing sustainable botanicals locally and globally. Distilled at our home base in the Barossa Valley. We craft the purest gins creating light and balanced aromatics and flavours.
