Passion and Precision in McLaren Vale - A Boutique Winery's Path to Handcrafted Excellence
A Boutique Winery in McLaren Vale
Aphelion Wines is a world-class boutique winery located in McLaren Vale, South Australia. Founded in 2014 by Rob and Lou Mack, the winery began with a vision and a modest investment. Every aspect of the winery, from vineyard selection to marketing and sales, is managed by Rob and Lou, showcasing their dedication and hands-on approach.
Their wines are celebrated for their quality, reflecting the unique characteristics of their vineyards and the surrounding terroir.
Handcrafted Wines of Aphelion
Situated between picturesque hills and the sea, Aphelion specializes in Grenache. Aphelion has a reputation for producing amongst the best Grenache in McLaren Vale, as reported by James Suckling, Decanter, Robert Parker, Halliday Wine Companion and The Real Review.
The couple started with just one ton of exceptional Grenache from Blewitt Springs, producing their first four wines, which quickly sold out. Since 2017, they have expanded their offerings to include Chenin Blanc, Mourvedre, Nero d'Avola and Falanghina.
Every step, from hand-pruning the vines to bottling, is done manually, ensuring high quality in every bottle. Today, their wines are available throughout Australia and internationally.
Taste the Sun in Every Sip
Rob, Lou, and their dedicated growers prioritize bio-organic practices, implementing sustainable methods to protect the environment and the health of their vines. Their commitment to quality is evident in every wine they produce.
Aphelion Wines offers a diverse selection of red, white, and rosé wines, each crafted to perfection, allowing wine lovers to enjoy the essence of McLaren Vale.
