Notwithstanding the originally modest quality expectations held for the region by its pioneers, Padthaway has proved to be an excellent white wine producer and, if yields are controlled, an equally good red wine area.
There are no subregions.
Given the absence of any significant mountains, a maritime climate generally prevails. The region’s original bias towards white wines is surprising given that it is significantly warmer than Coonawarra to the south, with more sunshine hours, lower rainfall and fewer rain days. It was Read more »

Pillar Box Red 2012
Snoothrank:
A robust wine that emits blackberry, slight oak, pepper and spice, anise and blueberry on the nose. The palate follows nicely with the blackberry and dark cherry turning slightly sweetish when then tannins push through. Good acidity lends to a full aftertaste that sails. Great wine at a modest price. Built for short term aging this bottling w... Read More
