Our Winery located just north
of Kingscote overlooks the Bay of Shoals and Reeves Point, site
of the first settlement in South Australia.
The first vines were planted
on the hillsides in 1993, they are hand pruned and the grapes
hand picked. There are now 25 acres including Cabernet Sauvignon,
Shiraz, Riesling, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. These premium
grapes are grown in a true maritime climate, the wines reflecting
this quality environment with intense varietals flavours.
Our Cellar Door has been
built and is open from 11 till 5pm daily, except Christmas Day
& Good Friday. The design and interior décor has been
created by Bernie Walsh. Bernie is responsible for the attractive
Pelican label and his prints can be seen and purchased from our
Cellar Door. The work of Indiana James features as well as several
pieces of maritime history, including the Chronometer from the
Karatta and many boating items. All five of our varieties are
available for tasting and are served in our famous Pelican Glasses
while enjoying the captivating view over the Bay of Shoals.
Please come and visit us
for a memorable wine tasting experience!
