CORRYTON BURGE
Our legacy stretches back six generations to the early settlers of the region, John and Eliza Burge, who arrived from England in 1855.
Since then, our family has dedicated itself to crafting exceptional wines that have become synonymous with excellence in the Australian wine industry. Over time, we have grown and nurtured vineyards across South Australia, cultivating over 300 hectares of land to create some of Barossa’s most prestigious and celebrated premium wines.
Each generation has lovingly passed down the heart and soul of our craft, and today, Trent and Amelia Burge carry forward this tradition with a passion for winemaking that spans over 150 years and a determination to create something extraordinary for the generations to come.

Leconfield Wines
In 1974, at 76 years of age, with a winemaking career spanning nearly 60 years, Sydney Hamilton (1898-1987) selected a fine piece of ‘Terra Rossa’ country at Coonawarra to fulfill a life’s ambition, to grow and produce a classic Australian Cabernet Sauvignon. He named the estate Leconfield, after his English ancestor, Lord Leconfield, and set about establishing a remarkable reputation for Leconfield Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon.
Richard Hamilton
Richard Hamilton Wines are reflective of the distinctive McLaren Vale region with its Mediterranean climate producing great value, fruit driven wines. The Hamilton family has been involved in winemaking and grape growing for five generations. Dr Richard Hamilton now continues his family’s long tradition of involvement in the wine industry.
LeOGATE
First planted in the 1970s by “one of the
founding fathers of the modern Australian wine industry”, Len Evans AO OBE, current custodians Bill and Vicki Widin bought the original 50-hectare under vine Brokenback Vineyard in 2008. Bill and Vicki were former Angus producers in the Tamworth district at ‘Middlebrook Park’. They have used their own knowledge and experience on the land, along with the expertise of others such as senior winemaker Mark Woods, to reinvigorate the property and build the successful wine brand they are known for today.
RED HILL ESTATE
Red Hill Estate was established in 1989 by the late Australian businessman, Sir Peter Derham and his wife Lady Averil. Fruit for the flagship wines is sourced from the nearby Merricks Grove Vineyard. Established in 1998 the Merricks Grove Vineyard has flourished into a mature, quality producing vineyard of high repute. The wines across their diverse range are exceptional, with grapes sourced from Cool Climate wine regions where different cool climates mix with volcanic and sedimentary soils to create wines that are wonderfully textured, complex and elegantly understated
