Adelina
Bespectacled and dripping in tatts, Colin McBryde is considered one of the industry’s most-loved characters. Ruthlessly quick witted and thoughtful, McBryde was the Young Gun of Wine for 2009
Adelina is a small vineyard and winery in the Springfarm sub-region of Clare, set amongst one of the most historically relevant winery and vineyards in Australia.
They run their farm with organic principles. The plantings of well established Shiraz, Grenache and Pedro Ximenez, some dating back to the turn of the 20th century and recent plantings, of Shiraz, Mataro and Malbec are ACO certified.
They also work with a very small group of grape growers in Clare and the Adelaide Hills whom grow fruit for their non-estate wines. The winery is rustic in a sense of mod-cons and mechanisation, where the most elaborate piece of equipment would be the coffee machine.
Here at Regions, we love the Adelina wines and believe they have a well deserved place on our shelves.
