Simon Tolley Wines

Combine the soils, the rain and the sun – and blend green-thumbed expertise from years of vine-growing knowledge plus the wisdom of his forefathers – and great winemaking is bound to follow. The Simon Tolley recipe is flavour-rich and balanced: distinctive, long-lived wines.

As a fifth generation grape grower you develop intuitive knowledge of how quality fruit makes great wine.

The result is a range of classic Adelaide Hills cool-climate wines that proudly carry the Simon Tolley stamp.

Simon holds a Bachelor of Applied Science (Viticultural Science, 1998). He’s managed many vineyards, from the Padthaway and Naracoorte regions (lower South East, SA) to the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale (SA), as well as at Margaret River, WA. Returning to the Adelaide Hills, he first worked in a technical role, then later as contract services manager and a regional manager. Coming home reinforced his belief that the Hills always was the best place to create fine wine.
