Our Italian varietal range reflects a simple conviction: the cool, elevated slopes of the Adelaide Hills are some of the best sites outside Italy for these classic grapes — and that growing them is, for us, a matter of heritage as much as winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWhere most Australian producers default to French varieties, we've planted what our family knows best.

Our Ashton Barbera 2025 is handpicked and estate-grown on the gentle inclines of the Ashton vineyard, a site whose altitude and cool nights are ideally suited to this northern Italian grape.
