‘A homage to organic winegrowing and respect for our land.’

 
 
 

Up a dirt track between Willunga and Silver Sands beach is Culley Road, home to some of the region’s best Shiraz and Grenache grapes, as well as the Kenneally half of our dynamic foursome.
 
High elevation, powerful wind gusts, and rocky soil means small and concentrated fruit, rich in flavour.
 
Embracing single estate, organic winegrowing, we pride ourselves on leaving our land better than how we found it.
 
Because living soils create the best wines, and you need to try them for yourself.

Discover a taste for McLaren Vale wines—crafted by Altschwager Kenneally and best served as they were created.

In Good Company.
