Penny's Hill Cellar Door

More

Penny's Hill Cellar Door is a relatively new McLaren Vale brand, its first wines being produced from the 1995 vintage. Recognized by its distinctive 'red dot' packaging, the Penny's Hill range is made by winemaker Ben Riggs, who uses only estate-grown fruit from the company's McLaren Vale vineyards (Penny's Hill, Goss Corner and Malpas Road) which are managed by local viticulturist, David Paxton. Penny's Hill is situated in the wine region of McLaren Vale some the 37 km South of Adelaide, capital of South Australia. Only 5km as the cockatoo flies from the crystal clear waters of the Gulf St Vincent, McLaren Vale is almost unique being so close to a such a large centre of population and yet on the doorstep of some of the cleanest and most beautiful beaches in the world. McLaren Vale is the home to approximately 300 independent growers, who look after some 5000 hectares (12000 acres) of vines.
