Sevenhill Cellars
Clare Valley , South Australia
Winery Overview
Sevenhill Cellars is one of the oldest wineries in Australia and viewed as a national treasure. This extraordinary heritage is reflected in the wine, the site itself and its link to the birth of a nation, which is something precious to be celebrated. Our journey began over 170 years ago, when Jesuit priests arrived from Europe to build a settlement that included a winery.
A site of historical significance, Sevenhill Cellars is the original Clare Valley winery. Its 100 hectares of vines, provide premium fruit for a diverse range of estate-grown and handcrafted wines including Riesling, Pinot Gris, Barbera, Grenache, Touriga, Merlot, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
If you're not stocking Sevenhill, your missing out on an authentic expression of the Clare Valley from the very first winery ever built. Our vines are part of what makes Sevenhill unique, and this is where our heritage clones come into play. Our heritage Shiraz vines were planted in 1862, Grenache was planted in 1920 and 1966, and Cabernet in 1975. It is not just the vines which make Sevenhill special. The mesoclimate and soils these vines are grown in, also contribute to the layers of flavour and palate intrigue.
We would love to start a conversation and share our wines and stories with your customers.
