About Us
The Auld family have been making wine for seven generations—it’s in our blood.
Growing up in the Barossa Valley, wine becomes part of your DNA before you’re even old enough to know it.
For us, it meant grape seeds cushioning falls from the schoolyard monkey bars—while other kids landed on bark chips. It meant bleary-eyed mornings pruning vines as teenagers, and ‘trophies’ in the form of local wine long before we were anywhere near old enough to drink it.

Dad’s 40th birthday port barrel? Let’s just say it didn’t survive untouched. The port was more out of necessity than enjoyment back then—and it certainly didn’t make those early starts any easier—but all of it added up to an upbringing steeped in wine and community.
Of course, it’s in the blood. Six generations before us, our pioneering great-grandfather was planting some of South Australia’s very first vines—a legacy that paved the way for everything to come.
Now, more than 150 years later, we’re proud to continue that tradition. Every bottle we make reflects the land we love and the stories we carry—while hopefully inspiring the next generation of Aulds to pick up the torch.
We look forward to sharing a glass with you.
