Avondale Wine
Who We Are
At Avondale, we make extraordinary wines approved by Mother Nature.
Our ethos, Terra Est Vita meaning ‘Soil is Life' encapsulates our view of Avondale Estate as a dynamic living system where soil, water and energy; plants, animals and people; even our buildings, are part of a complex web of relationships and networks. We uphold the key principle of Life - to constantly create conditions conducive to more Life.
Certified organic and practicing bio-dynamic agriculture; we go beyond both these beneficial systems of natural farming by using the best 21st Century science, technology and knowledge to enhance sustainability.
Our commitment to promoting life does not only lead to Mother Nature's approval; it also ensures the premium quality of Avondale's unique, naturally-made, slow wines. The vigour of our well-tended vines leads to excellent grapes bursting with fresh flavours that are evident in our individually-styled, classic wines, so full of life and character.
