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. The design and interior decor 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. In 2007 the winery was finalized and the first vintage took place in March. As a result we were able to add 4 more varieties to our portfolio; Rose, Sparkling Rose, Late Harvest Riesling and a fortified red. All of these are proving to be very popular with visitors.
