Clare Valley is the home of famous Australian wineries Grosset, Jim Barry and Wendouree. It’s where Tim Knappstein cut his teeth mastering Riesling. Nestled a couple hours north of Barossa, it features terra rossa soils (amongst other types) that make for penetrating wines, as well as very cool nights which are helpful for long and more even growing times. In a nutshell – its potential for quality vine growing and winemaking has long been recognized.

The small vineyard & winery are set in the Springfarm sub-region of Clare, and managed entirely organically.

Adelina began as a way to make wines for family and friends from the Gardner’s family estate in Clare. In the early 2000s, Jen Gardner and her partner-in-crime, Colin McBryde, decided to take things to the next level with the first commercial release of Adelina.
