Located southeast of Adelaide, the Adelaide Hills is a wine region covering nearly 1,500 km² with 3,957 hectares of vineyards. Thanks to its high altitude and rugged landscape—with its rolling hills, valleys, and sub‑valleys—the region enjoys a cool climate that gives rise to a variety of meso‑climates. This climatic diversity is one of the keys to producing elegant Pinot Noir with distinctive characters.Pinot Noir from this region typically exhibit a medium‑bodied style, brimming with ripe cherry and strawberry flavors, softened by gentle tannins.
