AUSTRALIA

Vinaceous

WINERY OVERVIEW

As Australia is a huge landmass, not all varieties grow in one place, so the Vinaceous concept

is to think very carefully about the variety or style of wine desired, and then to make the wines

in the best-suited region.

Vinaceous Wines also looks to the future with new and emerging varieties grown in Australia,

such as Vermentino, Pinot Grigio, Malbec and Tempranillo, to complement the more traditional

offering of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Shiraz, and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Vinaceous labels and marketing reflect a philosophy of a travelling theatrical winemaking

company. Each label represents one of nine personalities: men, women, angels, demons,

mermaids, and other creatures of mythology, as a way of visually bringing this concept to life.

LOCATION OF VINEYARD

Vinaceous champions single varietal wines (making only one red blend) from key maritime

climates: Margaret River, Adelaide Hills, and McLaren Vale, the most noted wine regions of

Australia. Some vineyards are Vinaceous-owned, while others are contracted, but all are

subjected to the same standards across all aspects, from growing to harvest, winemaking

to bottling.

WINEMAKING PHILOSOPHY

The Vinaceous philosophy on winemaking is simple: to produce the best varietal wines from

the best vineyards, from the best regions in Australia.
