Elderton Wines is a celebrated family-owned winery in the Barossa Valley, producing some of the region’s most distinguished wines. Established in 1982, the winery is now in the hands of the second generation of the Ashmead family, who continue to honour its rich history while embracing innovation. With estate-grown fruit from Nuriootpa, Greenock, Craneford, and Mengler Hill, Elderton showcases the unique regional diversity of Barossa through a range of wines, from vibrant Rieslings and Chardonnays to bold Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Committed to sustainability, Elderton practices low-intervention viticulture, minimal irrigation, and responsible land management. Their winemaking philosophy balances tradition with a modern approach, ensuring that each bottle reflects the purity of the fruit and the exceptional terroir of their estate vineyards.
The Elderton Cellar Door offers a warm and inviting experience in the family's beautifully restored 1918 homestead, surrounded by historic vineyards. Guests can enjoy guided tastings of estate and premium wines, with options to explore back vintages and exclusive releases. Visitors can also relax on the verandah overlooking the 1894 Command Vineyard, enjoy a glass of wine by the open fire in winter, or soak in the sunshine on the lawn.
For a more immersive experience, Elderton provides curated tastings, wine and food pairings, and private tasting room experiences. Whether sampling their renowned Shiraz or discovering their lighter, alternative varietals, every visit is a chance to explore the story behind the wines in a stunning Barossa setting.
