Mt Lofty Ranges Vineyard
Established in 1992, Mt Lofty Ranges Vineyard is a sustainable, niche, boutique vineyard nestled high in the Adelaide Hills at Lenswood, South Australia.
The first wines were produced in 1997 and in 1998 the Cellar Door was opened, which was one of the first in the Adelaide Hills. Once an apple orchard in the 1950’s, the property is set on a steep sloping parcel of land 550 metres above sea level. In 2009, Sharon Pearson and Garry Sweeney took over the picturesque vineyard after a 6 year exhaustive search to find a property that suited their dedicated philosophy.
