The
working winery adjoins the cellar door,
separated only by extensive glass windows.
Elevated internal observation balconies
also provide visitors with the opportunity
to view the winemaking process, where
modern stainless steel fermenters contrast
with traditional oak barrels. As a bonus,
the cellar crew can usually be seen and
heard at work!
In 1890
John Riddoch founded Coonawarra, the
history of which is inextricably entwined
with the Riddoch and Rymill families. His
grandson, John Riddoch Rymill, was a
distinguished polar explorer, whose son
Peter and his wife Judy, both farmers and
keen equestrians, established the Rymill
Coonawarra Winery in 1990. John Innes,
whose motto is nil nimis, or nothing in
excess, makes a range of modern
well-balanced wines with a classic Old
World accent.
Enhanced
by subtle oak handling, they remain true
expressions of the vineyard, are rich and
elegant in style, and are most delightful
in the company of food.
