About

A warm welcome awaits you at Aphelion's picturesque McLaren Vale cellar door.

Aphelion wines delight the discerning palate. Driven by passion for sharing world-class Grenache, exquisite Chenin Blanc and other grape varieties that thrive in the Mediterranean climate of McLaren Vale. Indulge in the Aphelion Wine experience. Expect extraordinary wines and an unpretentious atmosphere.

In the winery Rob Mack's skilled, gentle hands conjure extraordinary wines using minimal intervention. Wines are vegan and <100ppm sulphur. Red wines are unfiltered and unfined.

Aphelion's resulting authentic McLaren Vale wines speak of their provenance while they match perfectly with the food you love, the climate, and your life’s best moments. They are the darlings of critics and consumers alike.

Overlooking vineyards, bushland, and a lavender farm, the Aphelion Cellar Door invites lingering. A hardwood deck commands pride of place on the lawns. Delectable local produce is available for guests to create their ultimate selection at the "Make Your Own Platter" station. Classic and Reserve tastings span the breath of premium wines produced. Especially want to try something else? Just ask.

Seeking a more exclusive, uniquely South Australian experience as close as possible to the vines? Aphelion’s “Back of the Ute” vineyard wine tasting experience puts you right where nature’s alchemy happens in the vineyard.

Rob & Louise Mack look forward to sharing their wines with you!
