The newest cellar door coming out of the Adelaide Hills, Wotton Family Wines, made its debut last fortnight.

The locally-owned family-run winery opened under the radar to most, but was debuted to a great reception for those who were lucky enough to be the first to visit.

You may recognise the Wotton name and associate them with their cherry business. Since the cherry-picking season is only 6 weeks out of the year, the family thought it was time to switch things up and showcase the wonderful offerings that can come out of their new humble cellar door year-round.

The current capacity of the cellar door is around 30 people, so you will be able to feel the incredible intimacy of the space.

“We want people to be able to experience this wonderful area with us, and showcase just how beautiful this region is.

“We also want people to come and experience a part of who we are and where we come from,” Cam Wotton says.

The cellar door will include a tasting room as well as an undercover deck area known as ‘the pod’.

For over 150 years the Wotton family have worked with productive, rolling farm land at Uraidla in the Adelaide Hill’s picturesque Piccadilly Valley.

In 1994, the first wine grapes were planted in fertile soils previously used for fruit growing and market gardening. Since this time, the Wotton family have dedicated their focus on producing the highest quality cherries and wine grapes.

“Horticultural production is in our DNA, and our hands-on attention to detail over six generations has stood us in good stead for the beginning of a new and exciting venture,” Wotton family says.

After 25 years of growing vines and supplying premium cool climate fruit, the Wotton family have decided to keep some specially selected, small parcels, of the very best fruit for use in its own label.

They currently have a beautiful 2018 Chardonnay, 2018 Pinot Noir and the 2019 Rose available either online or purchase through their cellar door.

If you would like to visit Adelaide Hill’s newest cellar door, find Wotton Family Wines at 1141 Greenhill Rd, Uraidla SA 5142.
