Heath Wines

Founder and former racing car driver turned wine producer, Alan Heath, purchased from his retiring next door neighbour a 100 year old dairy farm in the premium wine growing region the “Adelaide Hills” in South Australia. Paying great attention to soil type, climate, row sizes, ripping, water quality, varieties and cloning attracted the immediate attention of Penfolds who contracted the fruit from his premium vineyard for a number of years.   The purchase of the Vineyard was the start of a journey that culminated with the formation of Heath Wines in 1998.
