About

With over 40 years of innovation and tradition, Mount Avoca is one of Australia's most exciting wineries. Located in the rolling foothills of the Pyrenees ranges, the unique and special sense of place that defines Mount Avoca begins in the cool climate organic vineyard where grapes are first nurtured and then hand-crafted into extraordinary wines. A deep understanding of the land helps to capture the distinctive regional terroir and great varietal character that defines the world's finest wines. Renowned for its reds, the Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon are perennial medal winners and the recently released Reserve Shiraz and Sparkling Shiraz have added an extra dimension to an already formidable array. The Mount Avoca whites are defined by a house style that is elegant and refined. Layers of flavour and complexity are combined in wines with a delicate structure that are both delightful to drink and immensely satisfying on several levels, either on their own or matched with a wide range of cuisines. Enjoy panoramic views from around the property and the cellar-door. The Mount Gambier stone Cellar-door is modern and light-filled and looks onto the vineyard. Well appointed with a secure playground and several picnic areas, a log fire adds warmth in the winter months.
